Highmark grants positive medical policy for Nevisense, boosting SciBase's U.S. outlook
What happened
SciBase announced that Nevisense received its first positive medical policy from Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield on October 14, 2026. This decision changes the reimbursement landscape for Nevisense, allowing eligible use of the technology to move from a cash-pay model into covered care through a major U.S. private insurer. This approval introduces a new growth driver for SciBase.

Why it matters
The coverage expands the number of dermatology practices and patients who can access Nevisense under a reimbursed model. This removes one of the most significant barriers to scale for the technology in the United States, creating a substantially larger market opportunity.
SciBase is seeking to expand its indication via a 510(k) submission while Nevisense already holds CE mark approval in Europe.
