Summary
Aetna considers magnetic resonance neurography experimental, investigational, or unproven because the medical literature on its clinical use remains in early stages of development. The policy lists ICD-10 codes for nerve, nerve root and plexus disorders (G50.0 through G59) and for injury to nerves and spinal cord (S04 through S94 ranges) as not covered for the indications listed. There are no specific CPT or HCPCS codes for magnetic resonance neurography.
