L5995

L5995

9/8/2006

Medicare lists L5995 in the fee schedule, but I did not find a fee
associated with it. Is Medicare reimbursing for the additional expenses
associated with the fabrication of a prosthesis for those who exceed
the 300lb limit on most components, or is there a specific heavy duty
feature that they are referencing? Does anyone know if Medicare has
established a fee for what they are accepting as an appropriate
reimbursement rate for the L5995?

Thanks in advance,

Mike Madden,CPO
