Question:
There is a product called CTM Boost that is being marketed as a regenerative medicine injection covered by insurance under this code, C1762. Have you seen this and are any amniotic or regenerative products covered by Medicare or private payors? Is this an acceptable code for office use?
Answer:
Thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately, these injections are considered experimental under Medicare and most all commercial insurance carriers. Therefore, it would not be a covered service at this time.
