Policy Summary
Transanal radiofrequency therapy for fecal incontinence (e.g., SECCA/Secca System) is considered experimental, investigational, or unproven and is not covered by Cigna, so reimbursement will be denied despite FDA 510(k) clearance. Claims must use appropriate covered procedure and diagnosis codes (use of CPT 46999 is not covered), and coverage is subject to the member’s benefit plan, applicable laws/regulations, and potential medical director review—services billed without covered codes or for noncovered diagnoses will be denied.
