Partial Silione Fingers and Medicare Denials

Partial Silione Fingers and Medicare Denials

Chris Philips

Hi All,

I recently provided two Silicone partial fingers to a pt. with medicare and
followed the rules we have in the past about billing. Medicare had denied it
and we've reached out to the billing assistance folks at Ilimb/Living Skin
and they don't seem to be very responsive. Has anyone run into this issue
with Medicare Region A or others recently?

Thanks as always.
