Draft Article - Billing and Coding: MolDX: Molecular Testing for Solid Organ Allograft Rejection (DA58170)
The information in this article contains billing, coding or other guidelines that complement the Local Coverage Determination (LCD) for MolDX: Molecular Testing for Solid Organ Allograft Rejection DL38671.INTERPRETATIVE AND EDUCATIONAL INFORMATIONThe below section provides additional interpretative and educational content to help providers and other stakeholders better understand the intent of the existing coverage criteria language of the policy. Reasonable and necessary thresholds for coverage are defined in the policy Coverage Criteria section and are not altered by the article language.Intended use requirementsTests within scope of the policy must comply with the stated requirements of the coverage criteria of the policy. The policy lists intended uses, that when met, can allow for coverage of services within scope of the policy, provided all other listed requirements are also met. Of note, the analysis of the evidence in the policy reflects the underlying value proposition of the test as one that can preclude an unnecessary tissue biopsy. This is therefore reflected in the intended use section of the coverage criteria.The four intended uses that are established in the policy all require that the physician is concerned about at least one of the following: rejection (and would otherwise obtain a biopsy to evaluate the allograft), the adequacy of immunosuppression (and would otherwise obtain a biopsy to evaluate the allograft or is considering doing so), the probability of rejection with concerning clinical information (clinical pre-tests/information that inform whether a subsequent biopsy would likely be avoided), and/or the results of an inconclusive biopsy (wherein the test may subsequently preclude another biopsy).In all scenarios presented the patients must be in consideration for a tissue biopsy or additional biopsy (such that the test prevents this when the biopsy won't likely be of benefit) OR require allograft evaluation because ofa prioriconcern for rejection or rejection risk due to clinical or biological factors (pre-test). No other intended uses are allowed by the policy.This leads to the following conclusions:

This leads to the following conclusions:-If a biopsy is performed, the test and the biopsy cannot be performed simultaneously or within a short window of time such that the test cannot reasonably inform medical management regarding the biopsy. Performance of the test simultaneously with biopsy or within a very narrow window of time from biopsy such that the results would not be available prior to the biopsy being performed would infer that the biopsy is performed regardless of test result and therefore the test has no impact on patient management. This is not consistent with the policy language.-Per policy, one of the intended uses of the molecular test is For further evaluation of allograft status for the probability of allograft rejection after a physician-assessed pretest.A pre-test is defined here as other physiologic/laboratory/clinical evidence consistent with rejection or risk of rejection wherein additional evaluation is subsequently warranted. Therefore, the information that leads to the use of the test must pre-exist the performance of the test. The results of the pre-test must be available to the treating clinician to inform the need for a molecular test or biopsy. Performing the test before such conditions exist, or to establish such a condition cannot be interpreted to be in compliance with the policy.-Although most coverage criteria are relevant tofor causetests, if a patient population exists such that they are at particularly high risk for rejection, and the pre-test clinical information would otherwise indicate a biopsy to evaluate the allograft health based on the risk of that population, the use of these services may fit within the intent of the policy coverage criteria language and analysis rationale.An example of this may be in heart allografts within the first year of transplant that would otherwise get a tissue biopsy due to evaluated pre-test risk. As such, the use of a molecular test for surveillance (protocol) testing can only be reasonably seen as compliant with the policy if the patient would otherwise receive a surveillance (protocol) biopsy. Providers must demonstrate that such a practice (for protocol biopsies) would otherwise be performed to meet policy requirements. Other uses of surveillance testing are not compliant with the policy language and would require policy reconsideration for inclusion.Additional billing information
Draft Article - Billing and Coding: MolDX: Molecular Testing for Solid Organ Allograft Rejection (DA58170)
Additional billing information-For a given patient encounter, only one molecular test for assessing allograft rejection status (within scope of this policy) may be billed. Any additional molecular tests billed after the first will be denied. Of note, services that include multiple components are considered a single service by MolDX and should be registered as such, in alignment with established MolDX practice.-Different Z-Code identifiers must be used for protocol vs for-cause testing. This will allow this contractor to better understand the intended use of the test.To report a service, please submit the following claim information:
