Does Medicare allow for the re-use of positive diabetic foot molds for subsequent annual provisions of custom FOs? ; meaning positive molds are given to patient and brought back for re-use when there is an order for new FOs. I understand there can often clinical contraindications for re-using molds,ie, changes in foot shape, condition, etc.

Thanks for replies!
