It expresses Molina's determination as to whether certain services or supplies are medically necessary, experimental, investigational, or cosmetic for purposes of determining appropriateness of payment. The conclusion that a particular service or supply is medically necessary does not constitute a representation or warranty that this service or supply is covered (i.e., will be paid for by Molina) for a particular member. The member's benefit plan determines coverage. Each benefit plan defines which services are covered, which are excluded, and which are subject to dollar caps or other limits. Members and their providers will need to consult the member's benefit plan to determine if there are any exclusion(s) or other benefit limitations applicable to this service or supply. If there is a discrepancy between this policy and a member's plan of benefits, the benefits plan will govern. In addition, coverage may be mandated by applicable legal requirements of a State, the Federal government or CMS for Medicare and Medicaid members.

  • TITLE: Tinzaparin Versus Dalteparin Or Enoxaparin for the Treatment of Venous Thromboembolism in Adults: Safety and Guidelines
    TITLE: Tinzaparin versus Dalteparin or Enoxaparin for the Treatment of Venous Thromboembolism in Adults: Safety and Guidelines DATE: 12 March 2013 RESEARCH QUESTION 1. What is the clinical evidence for the safety of tinzaparin versus dalteparin or enoxaparin for the treatment of venous thromboembolism in adults with a glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 30 ml/min? 2. What is the clinical evidence for the safety of tinzaparin versus dalteparin or enoxaparin for the treatment of venous thromboembolism in adults who require dialysis? 3. What are the evidence-based guidelines for the use of tinzaparin for adults with venous thromboembolism and a glomerular filtration rate less than 30 mL/min or adults who require dialysis? KEY MESSAGE Two meta-analyses, one randomized controlled trial, and one non-randomized study were identified regarding the safety of tinzaparin versus dalteparin or enoxaparin for the treatment of venous thromboembolism. No evidence-based guidelines were identified. METHODS A limited literature search was conducted on key resources including Pubmed, The Cochrane Library (2013, Issue 2), University of York Centre for Reviews and Dissemination (CRD) databases, Canadian and major international health technology agencies, as well as a focused Internet search. No methodological filters were applied. Where possible, retrieval was limited to the human population. The search was also limited to documents published between January 1, 2003 and March 1, 2013. Internet links were provided, where available. Disclaimer: The Rapid Response Service is an information service for those involved in planning and providing health care in Canada. Rapid responses are based on a limited literature search and are not comprehensive, systematic reviews.

  • What You Need to Know About Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
    What You Need to Know About Deep Vein Thrombosis What is a Deep Vein Thrombosis? A deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot that forms in the veins in the body (usually in the leg or pelvis). What causes a Deep Vein Thrombosis? Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) sometimes occurs for no apparent reason. However, certain factors can increase the chance of developing a DVT: • Inactivity • Hospital stays and surgery • Damage to your blood vessel from an injury or trauma • Medical and genetic conditions • Pregnancy • Taking estrogen-based medicine such as hormonal birth control or hormone replacement therapy • Overweight or obese • Family history of DVT • Older age What are the symptoms of DVT? Only about half of the people who have a DVT have signs and symptoms. These signs and symptoms of a deep vein clot include: • Pain or tenderness, often starting in the calf. • Swelling, including the ankle & foot. • Warmth and redness of the area or a noticeable discoloration Vascular Surgery -1- How is a DVT diagnosed? Your doctor will ask you questions about your symptoms and if your symptoms suggest that a blood clot is likely, you could have one or all of the following tests: • Blood test for a D-dimer: this test measures the level of a compound released when blood clots are dissolving. A high level may mean you have Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). • Imaging studies: o Ultrasound – This is the most common test for diagnosing deep vein blood clots. This test uses sound waves to create pictures of blood flowing through the arteries and veins in the affected leg.

The first edition was published in April 2001 under the same title (numbered Green-top Guideline No. 28) and the second edition was published in February 2007 and reviewed in 2010. Thromboprophylaxis during pregnancy and the puerperium is addressed in Green-top Guideline No. 37a. Executive summary of recommendations Diagnosis of acute venous thromboembolism (VTE) How is acute VTE diagnosed in pregnancy? Any woman with symptoms and/or signs suggestive of VTE should have objective testing performed C expeditiously and treatment with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) given (see section 6) until the diagnosis is excluded by objective testing, unless treatment is strongly contraindicated. Individual hospitals should have an agreed protocol for the objective diagnosis of suspected VTE during pregnancy. This may recommend the involvement of obstetricians, radiologists, physicians P and haematologists. What investigations are needed for the diagnosis of an acute DVT? Compression duplex ultrasound should be undertaken where there is clinical suspicion of DVT. B If ultrasound is negative and there is a low level of clinical suspicion, anticoagulant treatment can C be discontinued. If ultrasound is negative and a high level of clinical suspicion exists, anticoagulant treatment should be discontinued but the ultrasound should be repeated on days 3 and 7.
