The coverage criteria and definition of Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) are found in the CMS Internet-only Manual, Pub 100-03, Medicare National Coverage Determinations Manual, Chapter 1, Part 4, §220.2. MRA is considered appropriate when it can replace a more invasive test (e.g., contrast angiography) and reduce risk for beneficiaries. In addition, the services must be reasonable and necessary for the diagnosis or treatment of the specific patient involved.
