I am inquiring whether any list participants are having success billing the L5930 for K3 ambulators who require the high-activity frame for safety reasons due to exceeding weight limitations of non-high-activity knees. 
 
Which payers are recognizing the medical necessity?
 
Related- does anyone have a comparison of multiple manufacturers knees/ weight limits/ coding recommendations already compiled they would be willing to share?

Any other evidence or contributions anyone wants to contribute toward the addition of this element to Medicare LCD is welcome.
