Hello, all:
 
Can someone direct me to any information about the following:
 
For Medicare patients>>>>>>>>>>>
 
Are Rx's needed for replacement consumable items, i.e., (suspension belts
such as TES or PowerBelts, socks, sheaths, suspension sleeves, gel liners)
for existing prostheses? If not, are there time limits on how long the
original Rx for the prosthesis would be eligible to use for these consumable
replacements on an ongoing basis?
 
Replies will be posted.
 
Thanks,
 
Eric
