MALVERN, Pa., Feb. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Neuronetics, Inc. (NASDAQ: STIM), a medical technology company focused on designing, developing, and marketing products that improve the quality of life for patients who suffer from neurohealth disorders, announced criteria changes by Lucet Health that increase access for patients with depression to receive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), such as NeuroStar® Advanced Therapy. The policy update reduces the number of antidepressant medication attempts from four down to two prior to TMS eligibility.
“I am pleased to witness the collective efforts leading to improved access to mental health coverage,” stated Keith J. Sullivan, President and CEO of Neuronetics, Inc. “We commend Lucet Health for recognizing the importance of ensuring that individuals can access proven treatments like NeuroStar earlier in their path towards wellness.”
Lucet Health is a behavioral health organization that works with large insurance carriers across the country. Its policies impact approximately 9 million covered lives. The updated TMS criteria are effective as of February 1, 2024.
Neuronetics also recently announced continued momentum for favorable TMS coverage changes through three additional payors. Neuronetics is the only TMS company in the industry with a dedicated health policy team that partners with both providers and payors to advocate for health policy changes.
