Abstract:
Section 1862(m) of the Act (established by section 731(b) of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) (Pub. L. 108-173, enacted on December 8, 2003)) allows for payment of the routine costs of care furnished to Medicare beneficiaries in a Category A investigational device exemption (IDE) trial and authorizes the Secretary to establish criteria to ensure that Category A IDE trials conform to appropriate scientific and ethical standards. By providing Medicare coverage of routine costs in Category A trials, the Congress removed a financial barrier that may have discouraged beneficiaries from participating in these trials. It also gives Medicare beneficiaries the opportunity to have earlier access to new medical devices. Based on our rulemaking authority in section 1871 of the Act, we are applying the same Medicare coverage requirements and scientific and ethical standards to Medicare coverage related to Category B IDE studies/trials that would be applicable to Category A IDE studies/trials. CMS (or its designated entity) must review the following to determine if the Medicare coverage IDE study criteria in ?405.212 are met for purposes of coverage of items and services described in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section: (1) FDA IDE approval letter. (2) IDE study protocol. (3) IRB approval letter. (4) National Clinical Trials (NCT) number. (5) Supporting materials, as needed.
