Coverage indications
We will be issuing a revised Medicare national coverage decision in the Coverage Issues Manual. The revised instructions will maintain the existing standards for patient selection, patient management, commitment, facility plans, survival rates, maintenance of data, organ procurement, laboratory services, and billing. The volume criterion will be altered to require 12 transplants over a 12-month period for heart and liver transplant centers, and 10 transplants over a 12-month period for lung transplants. We will eliminate the 2-year minimum experience requirement.
