Question:
Where can I find out about the new Medicare LCD process I have heard about?
Answer:
In transmittal R854PI (issued January 11, 2019), the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) updates the Medicare Program Integrity Manual with detailed changes to the local coverage determination (LCD) process. For that transmittal, go to https://www.cms.gov/Outreach-and-Education/Medicare-Learning-Network-MLN/MLNMattersArticles/Downloads/MM10901.pdf.
