Per the Region C Supplier Manual:
The right (RT) and left (LT) modifiers must be used with orthosis base
codes, additions, and replacement parts. When the same code for
bilateral items (left and right) is billed on the same date of service,
bill both items on the same claim line using the LTRT modifiers and 2
units of service.
