Federal statute and subsequent Medicare regulations regarding provision and payment for medical services are lengthy.

Coverage Guidance

This local coverage determination limits Lynch syndrome (LS) genetic testing to a stepped approach for Microsatellite Instability and Immunohistochemistry (MSI/IHC) screening, BRAF gene mutation, MLH1 gene promoter hypermethylation and targeted mismatch repair (MMR) germ-line gene testing to patients suspected of having LS.
