Next-generation sequencing, also referred to as next-gen sequencing, has revolutionized genetic research and healthcare by enabling the identification of genetic variations. This innovative technique involves determining the sequence of nucleotides, the building blocks of DNA, in a beneficiary’s genetic code, which is known as DNA sequencing. Two commonly employed methods, namely whole exome sequencing and whole genome sequencing, leverage advanced technologies that enable the rapid sequencing of substantial amounts of DNA. These approaches have significantly propelled the field of genetics and serve as invaluable tools in the detection of genetic disorders.

Reauthorization Guidelines

See Evicore site for specific requirements

Limits

Medicaid shall not cover whole exome sequencing (WES) or whole genome sequencing (WGS) for ANY of the following scenarios:

  • 1. When the CCP criteria are not met;
  • 2. For uncomplicated autism spectrum disorder, developmental delay, and

mild to moderate global developmental delay;

  • 3. For screening during pregnancy to diagnose fetal conditions;
  • 4. For testing an embryo before implantation;
  • 5. For screening genetic carriers;
  • 6. Genetic disorders in every other circumstance; or
  • 7. The test is used to determine ancestry.

Comparator genome sequence analysis requires that whole genome sequencing be performed simultaneously or have been previously performed. For whole genome sequencing beneficiary must be currently admitted to or recently discharged from a NICU or PICU

Length of Stay
