Hi List,
I have a non-diabetic patient that has a very bad case of RA/OA & has peripheral neuropathy bilaterally. She also has both of her great toes amputated. Her foot deformity appears to be simular to the Japanese women that had their feet wrapped. She has Medicare only and needs shoes & inserts. Is there anything that can be done utilizing Medicare with her condition? If so, what would be the modifiers?
I appreciate the responses and will post replies with or w/o names at your option.
Thanks,
M. Britt Spears CPO
