Orthotic(s) management and training 97760

[Guest guest]

I am working in rural Montana and have recently had an increase in number of

referrals for patients to be measured and fit for compression stockings. When

coding for this is it safe to say that if the measurement and/or fitting was

completed during the evaluation it would be included in the 97001 Physical

Therapy Evaluation code?

If the measurement and/or fitting occured in a seperate visit, would I use code

97760 Orthotic(s) management and training or a different code?

Are compression stockings considered orthotics?

Thanks you for your help and have a wonderful day!
