Cam walker L codes

Text:

What L codes are advisable for billing for a camwalker type orthosis?
Most are solid ankle AFOs but are not custom molded as is L1960.
They are similar to a Double upright AFO L1990 but don't have ankle motion
or a calf band.
Functionally,(which is how we are supposed to determine which codes to use)
both of these L codes provide ankle control and will give knee control if
ankle motion is restricted.
   What L codes are apporpriate?
