There are seven distinct serotypes of botulinum toxin: A, B, C, D, E, F and G. All botulinum neurotoxin serotypes are understood to produce their clinical effect by blocking the release of the neurotransmitters, principally acetylcholine, from nerve endings. There are three distinct serotype A botulinum toxin therapeutic products and one serotype B botulinum toxin product that have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA): Created on 11/19/2018. Page 2 of 22

OnabotulinumtoxinA (Botox ) AbobotulinumtoxinA (Dysport ) IncobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin ) RimabotulinumtoxinB (Myobloc ) Whether a botulinum toxin is produced from the same or a different serotype producing strain, they undergo different manufacturing processes which yield differences in the size and weight of the molecules. Because of this, Botox, Dysport, Xeomin and Myobloc, as well as other type A products available internationally, are not interchangeable. They are chemically, pharmacologically and clinically distinct. Please note the FDA labeling in each product s package insert states: Units of biological activity cannot be converted into units of any other botulinum toxin or any toxin assessed with any other specific assay method. Botulinum toxin injections are used to treat various focal muscle spastic disorders and excessive muscle contractions such as dystonias, spasms, twitches, etc. They produce a presynaptic neuromuscular blockade by preventing the release of acetylcholine from the nerve endings. The resulting chemical-denervation of muscle produces local paresis or paralysis and allows individual muscles to be weakened selectively. Before consideration of coverage may be made it should be established that the patient has been unresponsive to conventional methods of treatments such as medication, physical therapy and other appropriate methods used to control and/or treat spastic conditions when applicable. It is expected that a patient will not receive continued injections of botulinum toxin if treatment failure occurs after 2 consecutive injections, using maximum dose for the size of the muscle. Payment will be allowed for one injection per site regardless of the number of injections made into the site. A site is defined as including muscles of a single contiguous body part, such as, a single limb, eyelid, face, neck, etc. Botulinum toxins (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin and Myobloc, will be considered medically reasonable and necessary when administered for treatment of the following FDA-labeled indications and other indications as specified below: FDA Indications for Botox : Coverage of Botox for certain lower limb spasticity conditions (e.g., cerebral palsy, stroke, head trauma, spinal cord injuries and multiple sclerosis) will be limited to those conditions listed in the Covered ICD-10-CM section of this LCD. All other uses in the treatment of other types of spasm, including smooth muscle types, will be considered as investigational and therefore, noncovered. strabismus and blepharospasm associated with dystonia benign essential blepharospasm facial nerve (cranial nerve VII) disorders in patients 12 years of age and older cervical dystonia to reduce the severity of abnormal head position and neck pain (i.e., spasmodic torticollis) severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis inadequately managed with topical agents. Patients should be evaluated for potential causes of secondary hyperhidrosis (e.g., hyperthyroidism) to avoid symptomatic treatment of hyperhidrosis without the diagnosis and/or treatment of the underlying disease. upper limb spasticity in adult patients, to decrease the severity of increased muscle tone in elbow flexors (biceps), wrist flexors (flexor carpi radialis and flexor carpi ulnaris) and finger flexors (flexor digitorum profundus and flexor digitorum sublimis). prophylaxis of headaches in adult patients with chronic migraine (> 15 days per month with headache lasting 4 hours a day or longer).

Treatment of urinary incontinence due to detrusor overactivity associated with a neurologic condition [e.g., spinal cord injury (SCI), multiple sclerosis (MS)] in adults who have an inadequate response to or are intolerant of anticholinergic medication. Treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and frequency, in adults who have an inadequate response to or are intolerant of an anticholinergic medication. Lower limb spasticity in adult patients to decrease the severity of lower limb spasticity (i.e., increased muscle tone) in ankle and toe flexors (gastrocnemius, soleus, tibialis posterior, flexor hallucis longus, and flexor digitorum longus): spastic hemiplegia spasticity related to stroke Off-label Indications for Botox : Botox is used for a wide range of off-label uses. The use of Botox may be considered a medically necessary offlabel indication for the treatment of dystonia or lower limb spasticity resulting in functional impairment (interference with joint function, mobility) and/or pain in patients with any of the following hereditary, acquired, degenerative, or demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system: dynamic muscle contracture in pediatric or adult cerebral palsy patients synkinetic closure of the eyelid associated with VII cranial nerve aberrant regeneration (e.g., hemi facial spasm) idiopathic torsion dystonia symptomatic torsion dystonia oromandibular dystonia spasmodic dysphonia orofacial dyskinesia focal hand dystonia (e.g., writer s cramp) hereditary spastic paraplegia neuromyelitis optica Schilder s disease The use of Botox may be considered medically necessary in patients with laryngeal spasm and torticollis (whether congenital, due to child birth injury, or traumatic). The use of Botox may be considered medically necessary in patients with achalasia who have not responded to dilation therapy or who are considered poor surgical candidates. The use of Botox may be considered medically necessary as treatment of chronic anal fissure. Treatment of gustatory hyperhidrosis (secondary) with Botox may be considered medically necessary in patients with medical complications; such as skin maceration with secondary infections, or significant functional impairments. FDA Indication for Dysport : the treatment of adults with cervical dystonia to reduce the severity of abnormal head position and neck pain in both toxin-naïve and previously treated patients; the treatment of spasticity in adults; the treatment of lower limb spasticity in pediatric patients 2 years of age and older. Off-label Indications for Dysport : Created on 11/19/2018. Page 4 of 22

benign essential blepharospasm hemifacial spasm in adults (ICD-10-CM code G24.4) severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis inadequately managed with topical agents. Patients should be evaluated for potential causes of secondary hyperhidrosis (e.g., hyperthyroidism) to avoid symptomatic treatment of hyperhidrosis without the diagnosis and/or treatment of the underlying disease. FDA Indications for Xeomin : chronic sialorrhea in adult patients adults with cervical dystonia, to decrease the severity of abnormal head position and neck pain in both botulinum toxin-naïve and previously treated patients blepharospasm in adults previously treated with onabotulinumtoxina (Botox) upper limb spasticity in adult patients FDA Indications for Myobloc : cervical dystonia to reduce the severity of abnormal head position and neck pain (i.e., spasmodic torticollis) A USPDI revision dated December 5, 2005, reversed their decision to allow treatment of spasticity caused by stroke or brain injury listing under Acceptance not established. The USPDI revision further states, The data describing the treatment of Botulinum toxin type B for upper limb spasticity are limited and inconclusive. In a single, randomized, placebo-controlled trail, BTX-B did not demonstrate a benefit in reducing muscle tone in the elbow, wrist or finger flexors in post-stroke patients. However, improvements in upper limb spasticity were reported in a few small openlabeled trials presented in abstract and/or poster forms. Therefore, effective 11/01/2006, this indication will no longer be allowed. Off-label Indications for Myobloc : sialorrhea The treatment of sialorrhea due to conditions such as motor neuron disease or Parkinson's disease in those patients who have failed to respond to a reasonable trial of traditional therapies (eg., anticholinergics and speech therapy) or who have a contraindication to or cannot tolerate anticholinergic therapy, will be allowed for coverage.

General Information Associated Information Documentation Requirements Medical record documentation maintained by the ordering/referring physician must substantiate the medical need for the use of botulinum toxin by clearly indicating the condition for which this drug is being used. This documentation is usually found in the history and physical or in the office/progress notes and should include the following elements in the event of a post payment review: support for the medical necessity of the botulinum toxin injection. a covered diagnosis. documentation of unsuccessful conventional methods of treatment such as the timing and duration of medication, and/or physical therapy, and/or other appropriate methods used to control and/or treat spastic conditions (statement outlining specific past history is acceptable). dosage and frequency of the injections. support for the medical necessity of electromyography procedures. support of the clinical effectiveness of the injections. specify the site(s) injected. when Botox (onabotulinumtoxina) is used for the FDA approved indication of prophylaxis of headaches in adult patients with chronic migraine (> 15 days per month with headache lasting 4 hours a day or longer), the documentation must support these specific symptom parameters. Utilization Guidelines It is expected that these services would be performed as indicated by current medical literature and/or standards of practice. When services are performed in excess of established parameters, they may be subject to review for medical necessity.
