Guest guest Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 I have a question for the group regarding billing for edema gloves. Is billing L3911 (Wrist hand finger orthosis(WHFO), elastic, prefabricated, includes fitting and adjustment(e.g., neoprene, lycra) the proper code for this. If not, could you please suggest an alternative code. Thanks in advance.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Hi Gabe, That's the L code number we use. Custom sized edema gloves such as Jobst are more costly and you may want to get prior approval as the L3911 does not reimburse very much.
