Hello,
I am looking to see what you would recommend for a c-leg repair that is not under warranty. We have used L5999 but we have received rejections stating that there are codes to describe what was provided. Our billing company recommended using both L7520 and L7510. I am worried that we would not be able to quantify the amount of time spent on repairs (one invoice said ~400 minutes) because we did not do it ourselves and sent it out. Our invoice also states every part that was replaced and am curious if those should be coded and assigned a price as L7510? Thank you for any suggestions you have!
