Helius Medical announces claim authorization by CignaHealth for PoNS Device

Helius Medical (HSDT) Technologies announced an additional authorized claim for payment for the PoNS Device from CignaHealth. CignaHealth becomes the fifth major payer to authorize claims for payment for the PoNS Device following the recent authorization by Anthem MultiPlan. “With approvals now secured from five major commercial healthcare payers, we are making significant progress increasing MS patient access to the PoNS device,” said Dane Andreeff, Helius President and Chief Executive Officer. “Importantly, these out-of-network total lump sum reimbursement payments at over $19,000, reinforce the value of PoNS while strengthening and supporting our ongoing efforts to achieve broader reimbursement from CMS and coverage across the healthcare landscape.”
