CMO Richard Migliori, MD, said UnitedHealth will be looking toward experts, professional organizations and physicians for guidance.
“We are continuing to develop our clinical policy as well as our ultimate position on coverage, but in doing so, we’re looking forward to getting the guidance that we need from Medicare, and also looking at the clinical evidence that comes from the ongoing clinical trials,” said Dr. Migliori.
