Reimbursement for survivorship activities generally fall under the Local Coverage Determination for Medicare fiscal intermediaries. Some intermediaries already reimburse for survivorship follow-up. For example in Virginia, the fiscal intermediary currently reimburses some nurse-practitioner-led follow-up activities using standard CPT codes.
