NCD and Q-Code

In 2011, CMS1 issued a National Coverage Determination (NCD) and Q-code for PROVENGE that simplify patient coverage criteria and expedite electronic billing and payment.

All Medicare Administrative Contractors cover PROVENGE, and reimburse for administration2, based on the FDA-approved label, per the NCD.
