Centinel Spine earned coverage from a large commercial payer in Tennessee for one- and two-level lumbar disc replacement, the devicemaker said Feb. 21.
The unnamed payer, which represents 2.3 million people, will cover procedures with Centinel Spine's Prodisc L artificial disc starting March 1, according to a news release.
The move follows suit of payers in Illinois, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, Michigan and North Carolina who added their own coverage policies for Prodisc L.
Prodisc L is the only lumbar disc replacement implant to earn FDA approval for single and two-level procedures.
