FEVAR Coverage
The SVS Health Policy Committee sent a letter to the Medicare Administrative Contractor Wisconsin Physicians Service Insurance Corporation (WPS Medicare) on Fenestrated Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (FEVAR) coverage in their area of jurisdiction. WPS determined that coverage for the FEVAR CPT codes 0078T-0081T is allowed for patients meeting FDA-approved criteria. Their local coverage determination (LCD) will be revised to include CPT codes 0078T-0081T with an effective date of 06/01/2013.
