Pacific Edge (NZE:PEB, ASX:PEB) said Medicare Administrative Contractor, Novitas, will hold a Contractor Advisory Committee (CAC) meeting on Feb. 19 to evaluate clinical evidence supporting the use of its urine biomarkers for patients with hematuria, according to a Monday filing with the Australian and New Zealand bourses.

The committee's opinions are likely to influence Novitas' draft local coverage determination regarding Medicare reimbursement for Cxbladder, per the filing.

The company expects to enter a trading halt ahead of the CAC meeting that would remain in place until it provides investors with an update on the discussions, the filing added.

The company's Kiwi shares rose nearly 5% in recent Monday trade.
