Hello everyone,
I need some coding feedback from you all who are doing/have done the Up and About Gait Stabilizing Orthosis from Cascade. When I spoke with customer service, I was told to use either L2627 or L2628 depending on whether thermoplastic or laminated. I looked and these are just (very pricey) addition codes, one that is plastic molded pelvic control and the other is a metal frame pelvic control. Would I just add one of these onto bilateral kafos?
I would appreciate your experience.
Thanks!
