STIM Neuronetics Inc

Neuronetics, Inc. (NASDAQ: STIM), a medical technology company focused on designing, developing, and marketing products that improve the quality of life for patients who suffer from neurohealth disorders, announced that California Medicaid (Medi-Cal) has added TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) coverage for adults and adolescents aged 15 and older with MDD (major depressive disorder). This is the first policy from Medi-Cal that includes TMS, and the access follows the Company’s recent clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for NeuroStar TMS as a first-line add-on treatment for adolescents aged 15-21.

Medi-Cal is California's Medicaid healthcare program. It offers no-cost and low-cost health coverage for children and adults with limited income and resources who meet eligibility requirements. Medi-Cal policies impact 14.8 million covered lives in California. The TMS policy update will go into effect on August 1, 2024.

“At a time when mental health services are more essential than ever, expanded access to NeuroStar TMS through Medi-Cal is a pivotal step in addressing the growing need for care among both adults and adolescents,” stated Keith J. Sullivan, President and CEO of Neuronetics, Inc. “NeuroStar’s Health Policy team is fully committed to collaborating with providers and payors on policy updates that enhance availability for those in need.”

Neuronetics recently announced TMS policy updates from BlueCross BlueShield (BCBS) of Michigan and Cambia Health, in addition to a previous announcement with a policy change from Humana to address TMS coverage for adolescents.

Neuronetics is the first and only TMS company with FDA clearance for the treatment of adolescents and the only company in the industry with a dedicated health policy team that partners with both providers and payors to advocate for health policy updates.
