AK Stubbies

Posted By: John Craig on January 28, 2016

Can anyone tell me whether AK stubbies are considered AK preparatory prostheses by Medicare thereby limiting L-codes that can be used?     Or put another way, can L-code "add-ons" such as acrylic, carbon fiber, AK locking liners, etc. be added to billings submitted to Medicare?    John Craig, CPO/LPO (TX)
