NeurAxis Announces New Medical Policy Coverage in North Dakota

CARMEL, Ind., April 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NeurAxis, Inc. (“NeurAxis,” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: NRXS), a medical technology company commercializing neuromodulation therapies addressing chronic and debilitating conditions in children and adults, today announced the publication of medical policy coverage for Percutaneous Electrical Nerve Field Stimulation (PENFS), effective 05/06/2024, with a Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) licensee in North Dakota. The BCBS licensee is the largest provider of health care coverage in North Dakota, insuring and/or administering claims for over 310,000 people, effective May 6, 2024.

IB-Stim™ is a non-surgical device that sends gentle electrical impulses into cranial nerve bundles in the ear. Neuraxis’ PENFS technology is FDA-cleared for functional abdominal pain associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in adolescents 11-18 years old. There are currently no FDA-approved drug therapies for children with abdominal pain-related disorders of the gut-brain interaction. The current medical treatments, which are off-label drugs, can often have serious side effects, and most lack scientific evidence of efficacy.

“We are pleased to announce a new medical coverage policy, expanding our total covered lives for IB-Stim™ to approximately 16.5 million individuals, which speaks to the strength of the clinical data,” said Brian Carrico, President and Chief Executive Officer of NeurAxis. “We remain focused on executing on our commercial strategy, leveraging strong clinical evidence to obtain payer coverage and drive market adoption of our technology. We look forward to receiving additional coverage from payers on a national level.”
