Once published in a CMS program instruction, an NCD is binding on all Medicare carriers. LCDs are always based on medical necessity and created by a carrier whether to cover a particular service. They only apply to the area served by the contractor who made the decision. LCDs determine as to whether the service or item is reasonable or necessary.
NATIONAL COVERAGE DETERMINATIONS (NCDS) An NCD sets forth the extent to which Medicare will cover specific services, procedures, or technologies on a national basis. Medicare contractors are required to follow NCDs. If an NCD does not specifically exclude/limit an indication or circumstance, or if the item or service is not mentioned at all in an NCD or in a Medicare manual, it is up to the Medicare contractor to make the coverage decision (see LMRP).
When a contractor or fiscal intermediary makes a ruling as to whether a service or item can be reimbursed, it is known as a local coverage determination (LCD). When CMS makes a decision in response to a direct request as to whether a service or item may be covered, it's known as a national coverage determination (NCD).
A national coverage determination (NCD) is a United States nationwide determination of whether Medicare will pay for an item or service.
Coverage determination means a determination of the circumstances, if any, under which a health technology will be included as a covered benefit in a state purchased health care program.
