MDxHealth Provides Q3-2019 Business Update

IRVINE, CA, and HERSTAL, BELGIUM – November 11, 2019 – MDxHealth SA (Euronext: MDXH.BR), a commercial-stage innovative molecular diagnostics company, today provided a business update for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. 

             
Michael McGarrity, CEO of MDxHealth, said: “During this transitional period for MDxHealth we have set a foundation that will enable us to drive growth into our best in class menu which provides a pathway for both clinicians and patients screened for prostate cancer. We are confident that our refocused commercial organization, strengthened leadership team, financial operating discipline and clear strategic focus will serve as drivers of revenue growth.

This confidence is based in the actions we have taken to strengthen and focus our commercial organization and our ability to leverage the following key areas, which will be the catalyst for our growth projections. First, we are driving utilization into our current ConfirmMDx customer base, with a clear targeted approach to segmenting our focus through analytics related to payer mix and experience with adoption of a clinical pathway. We expect to see a return of this focus evidenced by growth in our unit volume for ConfirmMDx going forward.

Secondly, we have clear visibility to Medicare coverage for our SelectMDx test, evidenced by the Draft LCD achieved during the third quarter. It should be noted that final issuance of coverage will drive immediate revenue growth for that segment of our customer base. We look forward to providing visibility and guidance to both these growth drivers at the time of our full year results.”
