Policy Summary
Covers Evinacumab‑dgnb (Evkeeza) for treatment of homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) as an adjunct to other LDL‑C–lowering therapies. Coverage is limited to patients meeting policy‑specified clinical criteria—generally age ≥5 years—with genetic or clinical confirmation of HoFH and persistent elevated LDL‑C despite maximally tolerated combination lipid‑lowering therapy; use for heterozygous FH or other non‑HoFH causes is not covered, and off‑label uses require HHS‑adopted compendium support or two peer‑reviewed articles.
