This expanded Medicare coverage for the NeXT Personal test to include immunotherapy monitoring for late-stage solid tumors is a significant positive development. It broadens the market for a key diagnostic product, potentially boosting revenue for a company that recently reported a 25% year-over-year revenue decline and increased net losses.
