Medicare billing- one or two lines for bilateral?

Posted By: Randy McFarland on August 14, 2012

Hi List serve members,

Most paysources want us to list "left" and "right" on separate lines.

I understand that Medicare said we can invoice diabetic shoes on a single
line indicating "L and R".

Can anyone tell me if Medicare will also accept a billing if we use separate
lines for each side on a bilateral delivery?

Thanks,
