Size 15 Foot Responses

Joel Kempfer C.P.

Dear List,

Thanks to all of you who responded. There seemed to be some confusion as to
Medicare coverage for category K-3 or above. As I stated in my original post
the question of foot selection pertained to a preparatory prosthesis. It is
my understanding that Medicare will not reimburse for Springlite/Flex Feet on
preparatories no matter what K Level is appropriate.

Other than the Flex Foot/Springlite option, the Kingsley SACH or Ohio Willow
Wood's Carbon Copy II (custom) were the only choices recommended.

Thanks again for the insight.
