Medicare contractor Palmetto GBA has issued a draft local coverage determination (LCD) for GenomeDx Biosciences’ Decipher Biopsy prostate cancer genomic classifier.  Decipher Biopsy, which utilizes a 22-biomarker expression signature, is intended to be used to determine which prostate cancer patients are likely to have a good outcome by being closely followed and can avoid more aggressive treatments.
