Medicare and Liners (L-5673)

Text:

I've had a patient recently request 6 liners prior to going on an extended
trip to Europe for study. She currently is covered by Medicare primary, and
Medicaid secondary for prosthetic supplies.

It is our practice to supply two liners per year/device or replace as
necessary, and never had a request to stock up until now.

Does anyone know definitively how many liners are allowed per patient, per
year by our friends at Medicare?

I appreciate your responses and will post.
