Under Federal and State law, it is the individual provider's responsibility to determine appropriate coding, charges and claims for a particular service. Policies regarding appropriate coding and payment levels can vary greatly from payer to payer and change over time. TearLab Corporation recommends that providers contact their own regional payers to determine appropriate coding and charge or payment levels.

If you are a provider participating in a clinical trial, we recommend you contact your payers, including Medicare/Medicaid and private insurers, to verify correct coverage and reimbursement policies for investigational devices.
