About this policy
As an important part of Medicare Local Coverage Determination (LCD) development, National Government Services solicits comments from the provider community and from members of the public who may be affected by or interested in our LCDs. The purpose of the advice and comment process is to gain the expertise and experience of those commenting. We would like to thank those who suggested changes to the Select Minimally Invasive GERD Procedures LCD. The official notice period for the final LCD begins on October 16, 2017 and the final determination will become effective on December 1, 2017. We received a reconsideration request on TIF coincident with the CAC draft comment cycle. The evidence presented is detailed in the final policy summary of evidence. Based on this reconsideration request and submitted evidence, limited coverage has been added for TIF as outlined in the “Coverage and Limitations” section of the final LCD.
