(NASDAQ: TEM), a technology company leading the adoption of AI to advance precision medicine and patient care, today announced the impact of a new decision by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) that will allow reimbursement for assessments of cardiac dysfunction using the Tempus ECG-AF algorithm. ECG-AF is one of just a few FDA-authorized medical technologies in the country to be impacted by the new CMS decision, and this milestone allows Tempus to more broadly support clinicians in identifying patients at increased risk of atrial fibrillation\/flutter (AF).<\/p>\n<p>\nPer the CMS policy to allow payment for certain Software as a Service (SaaS) devices in the Hospital Outpatient setting, CMS has assigned associated procedure codes for assessments with assistive algorithms like Tempus\u2019 ECG-AF (<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.govinfo.gov%2Fcontent%2Fpkg%2FFR-2024-11-27%2Fpdf%2F2024-25521.pdf&amp;esheet=54167738&amp;newsitemid=20241217385462&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=CPT+0764T+and+CPT+0765T&amp;index=1&amp;md5=1f0cf85ec08b27c7521c45995f060902\">CPT 0764T and CPT 0765T<\/a>) to APC 5734, which has a Medicare rate of $128.90, effective January 1, 2025. This ruling is expected to allow hospitals to receive reimbursement for using Tempus\u2019 ECG-AF to help identify patients at increased risk of AF. Earlier this year, Tempus received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for the Tempus ECG-AF device, which was the first FDA clearance for an AF indication in the category known as \u201ccardiovascular machine learning-based notification software\u201d and paved the way for clinicians to use this innovative algorithm in the care of their patients.<\/p>\n<p>\nCardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death globally, making it critical to identify patients at high risk for undiagnosed heart disease much earlier. AF, a common cause of stroke, in particular affects millions of people and can be challenging to diagnose. As a result, nearly one million Americans are believed to have undetected AF, and are missing the opportunity to be treated optimally. Since over 100 million ECGs are performed each year in the U.S.<sup>1<\/sup> there is an opportunity to make these ECG tests \u201csmarter\u201d by applying machine-learning models that can detect risk of certain heart diseases like AF. Tempus ECG-AF provides a solution to help tackle this problem, giving clinicians an AI-based clinical tool to help them be more proactive about earlier disease identification and management.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWe are incredibly excited by this new Medicare ruling,\u201d said Brandon Fornwalt, MD, PhD, Senior Vice President of Cardiology at Tempus. \u201cThis, combined with our FDA clearance earlier this year, has substantially lowered the barrier for clinicians to broadly adopt innovative technologies like ECG-AF to tackle undiagnosed cardiovascular disease.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Tempus ECG-AF algorithm is intended for use to analyze recordings of 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) devices and to detect signs associated with a patient experiencing AF within the next 12 months. It is for use on resting 12-lead ECG recordings collected at a healthcare facility from patients 65 years of age or older who do not have a known history of AF or other specified conditions. The device provides clinicians with results that should be interpreted in conjunction with other diagnostic information, including the patient\u2019s original ECG recordings and other tests, as well as the patient\u2019s symptoms and clinical history. Tempus ECG-AF does not describe a person\u2019s overall risk of experiencing AF and should not serve as the sole basis for diagnosis of AF. Results should not be used as the basis for treatment of AF and are not intended to rule out AF follow-up.
