Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Custom molded orthoses are typically billed using "L" codes, which are specific to orthotic devices and are used by both occupational and physical therapists. CPT codes are used primarily for medical procedures, while HCPCS codes are used for medical equipment and supplies. DEMERC is a Medicare program that provides coverage for durable medical equipment, prosthetics, and orthotics, but it is not a billing code itself.
