Sunnyvale, Sept. 10, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- September 10, 2018
- Sunnyvale, CA – Arrayit Corporation (OTC: ARYC), a life sciences
and personalized medicine company, announces that Arrayit’s
proprietary finger stick allergy microarray test has been approved
for direct Medicare billing by the Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services (CMS). The Medicare national health
insurance program provides health insurance to more than 55 million
Americans annually, including 46 million seniors and 9 million
younger people. CMS projects a 2018 Medicare budget of
approximately $705,000,000,000 ($705 billion dollars), representing
about 17% of total federal spending.
Arrayit recently completed an allergy testing pilot program for
a top retail chain, established a nationwide network of 1,700
allergy sales professionals, met with top officials at the United
States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding FDA approval of
a major product line, reported the sale of clinical instrumentation
to the FDA, signed allergy testing contracts with a consortium of
178 medical clinics, received approval for in-store promotions by a
major retailer, and announced allergy testing partnerships with
major allergy therapeutics providers. The new Medicare
billing entitlement allows doctors to prescribe Arrayit’s allergy
test to a significantly expanded number of patients.
Arrayit CEO Rene Schena states, “Our mission of making allergy
testing more accessible is facilitated by the direct Medicare
billing entitlement, which makes it easier for doctors to prescribe
the test to a larger patient population including seniors and young
people. The inherent coupling of preventative non-invasive
allergy testing with personalized precision medicine allows doctors
to leverage and recommend medicines, immunotherapy and lifestyle
changes to better manage allergy and asthma.”
