    ADISON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

    Exact Sciences Corp. (EXAS) today announced that Tufts Health Plan, with more than 1 million members across Massachusetts and Rhode Island, will cover Cologuard as a colon cancer screening test effective March 15, 2015.

    Cologuard is the first and only FDA-approved, noninvasive stool-based DNA (sDNA) colorectal cancer screening test for average risk patients. The test will be available to members aged 50 and older who are enrolled in one of Tufts Health Plan’s Medicaid, Medicare Preferred HMO, Senior Care Options plan, or commercial HMO/POS plans.

    Tufts Health Plan is ranked the #1 health plan in the country for its Commercial plans and its Medicaid plans*. Its Medicare Preferred HMO and Senior Care Options plans earned a 4.5 star rating (out of five) from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services for 2015.

    “We are excited to work with Tufts Health Plan, an organization that supports evidence-based approaches to health and wellness, to bring our patient-friendly colon cancer screening option to its members,” said Kevin Conroy, Chairman and CEO of Exact Sciences. “The steady momentum around reimbursement for Cologuard since launch underscores the strength of our clinical data and the demand for more noninvasive screening options in order to improve colon cancer screening rates across the country.”

    Cologuard offers people 50 years and older who are at average risk for colorectal cancer an easy-to-use screening test that they can do in the privacy of their own home. Unlike many other screening options, Cologuard does not require medication, dietary restrictions or bowel preparation prior to taking the test. It is the first noninvasive screening test for colorectal cancer that analyzes both sDNA and blood biomarkers to detect cancer and precancer. Cologuard is available by prescription only.

    About Cologuard

    Cologuard was approved by the FDA in August 2014 and results from Exact Sciences’ prospective 90-site, point-in-time, 10,000-patient pivotal trial were published in the New England Journal of Medicine in March 2014. Cologuard is included in the colorectal cancer screening guidelines of the American Cancer Society and stool DNA is listed in the screening guidelines of the U.S. Multi-Society Task Force on Colorectal Cancer.

    Cologuard is indicated to screen adults of either sex, 50 years or older, who are at average risk for colorectal cancer. Cologuard is not for everyone and is not a replacement for diagnostic colonoscopy or surveillance colonoscopy in high-risk individuals. False positives and false negatives do occur. Any positive test result should be followed by a diagnostic colonoscopy. Following a negative result, patients should continue participating in a screening program at an interval and with a method appropriate for the individual patient. Cologuard performance when used for repeat testing has not been evaluated or established. For more information about Cologuard, visit www.CologuardTest.com. Rx Only.

    Moest ook nog even denken aan het KBC Bolero event van vorig jaar waar Dhr Groen het volgende zei over een mogelijke overname van MDX:

    "Company is committed to commercialize its products by itself and not via a partner as this leaves money on the table, despite the fact that the commercialization goes slower.
    The company could be a take-over target for other companies seeking additional top-line, but according to the CEO this will require first a better insurance coverage of the diagnostic test which is anticipate to take another 6-9 months"

    Onderhand een jaar verder maar weinig nieuws over nieuwe coverage dan wel een overname. Al blijft het boekje er verdacht uit zien....

    Ja het is allemaal zo doorzichtig.
    Die 5,15 worden gewoon weggekocht daar hoef je niet aan te twijfelen.
    Daar zitten we al de hele dag op te wachten, niet zo spannend.
    Kijk liever naar Imtech, daar gebeurd tenminste wat.
    De 5,15 is inmiddels al weg gedumpt . Je hebt gelijk . 18000 stuks in 1 keer . Waarom ?

    Een gedachte , zou de shorter niet in opdracht van een partij die mdx wil overnemen de opdracht hebben gekregen om de koers niet te snel te laten stijgen
    Vergaande complottheorie die ik zelf ook al eens heb overdacht. Het blijft mij nl een groot raadsel dat ze juist in MDx short zijn gegaan, terwijl als je short zou willen in bio er toch zoveel andere aandelen zijn waar veel en veel meer lucht in zit. Je kan wel of niet geloven in MDx, maar gezien de mogelijkheden toch niet spreken van een fors overgewaardeerd aandeel.
    Een evt overname, een positief bericht over de Pascual studie of ander goed nieuws, ik zou me niet echt prettig voelen als ik short zou zitten.

    Machteloos zijn we en daar wordt je wel moedeloos van. Als je vandaag het boek aan de laat ook weer ziet. Bijna allemaal orders van de shorter, wel weer 40/50.000 tot aan 5,21. Ik geloof absoluut niet meer in particulier aanbod, zeker niet in deze aantallen.

    Morgen weer verder omhoog met dit zojuist in de US gepubliceerde bericht:
