Prosthetic documentation for Medicare

Posted By: Jim Thelen on September 26, 2012



Hello List,

I've looked through all my LCDs and Articles about Lower Limb Prosthetics
and can not find the answer. Can a Nurse Practitioner or Physicians
Assistant complete the required Medicare documentation for a TF Prosthesis
or does it need to be an MD or DO?

Thanks in advance.
