MARLBOROUGH, Mass. and YOKNEAM ILLIT, Israel, April 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ReWalk Robotics Ltd. (DBA Lifeward™), (Nasdaq: LFWD) (“Lifeward” or the “Company”), a global market leader delivering life-changing solutions to revolutionize what is possible in rehabilitation, recovery, and the pursuit of life’s passions in the face of physical limitation or disability, today issued an open letter from Larry Jasinski, Chief Executive Officer, to shareholders discussing the Company’s progress with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) to establish a payment rate for ReWalk Personal Exoskeletons. The full letter is published below:

Key Points: 
  • As a result of the deferral, the payment rate is not included in CMS’ April 2024 Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics and Supplies (“DMEPOS”) fee schedule of Medicare payment rates that are effective April 1.
  • Our active engagement with CMS is ongoing and we work to establish the payment rate as soon as possible.
  • Until a payment rate for exoskeletons is added to the DMEPOS schedule, the Medicare Administrative Contractors (“MACs”) still have authority to approve and pay claims on a case-by-case basis with discretion to set the payment rate.
  • Lifeward intends to submit an additional 60-75 additional Medicare claims by the end of 2024 to accelerate its momentum in expanding access for qualified Medicare beneficiaries.
