2014 Open Meeting Dates and New Meeting Format Information is Now Posted

Dates for the remainder of the 2014 Open Meetings are now posted here.
Please note that starting in May of 2014 the Novitas Solutions Open Meeting will be a combined meeting for both Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) Jurisdiction H (JH) and MAC Jurisdiction L (JL) contract areas.

Open Meetings are for the purpose of discussing draft Local Coverage Determinations (LCDs). Anyone is welcome to present information related to the policies that are in the 45-day draft comment period. Interested participants may request to present scientific, evidence-based information; professional consensus opinions; or any other information that is relevant to any of the LCDs that are in draft. These in-person presentations are made to the Novitas Solutions’ Contractor Medical Directors. Interested parties may also request to attend as an observer.

NOTE: The Open Meeting is not a forum for discussing specific claims; or for the submission of new drugs, indications, or marketing of forthcoming drugs or medical devices. Information regarding new drugs, indications, or marketing information should be submitted according to Novitas guidelines. Specific claim questions, including billing, pricing and coding, should be directed to our Customer Service Center at 1-877-235-8073.
