Germany released new reimbursement payment coding for Medovex's DenerveX Facet Joint Syndrome Treatment.
Here are four takeaways:
1. Effective immediately, the new coding allows outpatient facilities and hospitals to receive reimbursement for using the DenerveX System to treat Facet Joint Syndrome in the spine.
2. Medovex's system is in the final stages of development and is not commercially available yet.
3. The system is not CE-marked or FDA-cleared.
4. "The new reimbursement code in Germany is a significant milestone in our European launch preparation for the DenerveX System," said Patrick Kullmann, president and COO, Medovex, "Germany is often recognized as a leader in early clinical adoption of new and cost effective technologies, being on the forefront of establishing reimbursement guidelines, and with other countries often following its lead."
