Beta Amyloid Positron Tomography in Dementia and Neurodegenerative Disease (RETIRED)

NCD356 is retired effective October 13, 2023; CMS removed the prior CED for PET beta‑amyloid imaging and delegated coverage determinations to Medicare Administrative Contractors under section 1862(a)(1)(A). There is no national coverage policy or specified documentation/frequency in this NCD, so coverage, documentation requirements, and limits will depend on regional MAC policies and may vary by jurisdiction.
