Washington’s statute of limitations for written contracts is generally six years, but insurers have much shorter deadlines: 90 to 180 days for commercial payers, 365 days for Medicare, and 12 months for Apple Health MCOs. Missing these deadlines forfeits payment entirely.
A Local Coverage Determination defines which tests Medicare covers, which ICD-10 codes support medical necessity, and testing frequency limits. Washington falls under Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) Jurisdiction F (JF), administered by Noridian Healthcare Solutions, with strict LCDs for molecular and genetic testing. Billing with a non-covered diagnosis code triggers automatic denial and audit exposure.
