Hello list serve members,
I am inquiring if anyone has had recent problems billing suspension
sealing sleeves to Medicare. We have recently received notice of
exceeding the acceptable maximum of units for L-code L5685. I have
always billed 3 suspension sleeves on initial delivery of a prosthesis,
and followed up with replacements as needed. These new cases are the
first two that we have ever had any problems with.
Is anyone else experiencing these issues? Have the Medicare guidelines
for suspension sleeves changed?
Thank you in advance for any information regarding this issue.
