HVD Policy Task Force Comments on CMS’s Proposed National Coverage Decision for T-TEER

May 12, 2025 Comment Letter, Policy Center

Dear Administrator Oz,

As members of the Heart Valve Disease Policy Task Force, a national group of 30 leaders including clinician and patient advocacy organizations, we appreciate the opportunity to comment on CMS’s proposed NCD regarding Tricuspid Valve Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair (T-TEER), also known as the TriClip G4 System. We wish to emphasize the critical importance of establishing a comprehensive Medicare coverage policy that includes all FDA-approved minimally invasive transcatheter therapies for patients with symptomatic severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR).

When a person is newly diagnosed with any disease or serious medical condition, they are often flooded both with anxiety and unfamiliar medical terms. The weight of the unknown can overwhelm. Patients diagnosed with heart valve disease hear words like: stenosis, regurgitation, heart failure, valve repair or replacement, blood thinners, tissue or mechanical valves, open heart surgery or minimally invasive procedure. And that list doesn’t even include any of the tests! Feeling unsure while navigating decisions about treatment is completely normal. If you or a loved one is in this situation, you’ve earned the right to feel anxious.
