Title:
Suspension Sleeves
Text:
I have found some of the new suspension sleeves (Iceflex, TEC Prolink, Alps,
etc.) to be far superior in function and durability and have witnessed fewer
problems with dermatitis compared to latex or neoprene sleeves for many of
our BK suspension sleeve wearers. The only L-codes I'm aware of for BK
suspension sleeves are 5674 and 5675 which are latex sleeve suspension or
equal. I do not consider these sleeves and/or there materials, silicone,
urethane, etc., to be equal to latex. I'm not sure however, if or how you can
properly code them otherwise. If anyone has knowledge of other proper codes
available or experience successfully coding these sleeves (5999 or otherwise)
I would appreciate your input or suggestions.
Thank you,
