What Is Knee Replacement? During knee replacement surgery, the surgeon takes damaged cartilage and bone out of the knee joint and replaces them with a manmade joint. The operation is also called knee arthroplasty, and it's one of the most common bone surgeries in the U.S. In some cases, it can be done robotically.
L1686 contains a semi-rigid or rigid waistband connected to a single rigid upright, hip joint and rigid thigh cuff. The hip joint is adjustable for extension/flexion as well as abduction; the hip joint aligns and maintains the femur in an abducted position. The L1686 is also considered to be a complete product/device. It is also considered to be custom fitted and requires more than minimal self-adjustment at the time of delivery and requires the expertise of a certified orthotist or an individual who has specialized training in the provision of an orthosis to fit the item to the beneficiary.
The DME MACs and the PDAC published a joint correct coding bulletin regarding code descriptors that include the term “prefabricated, includes fitting and adjustment”. A total of 51 orthotic HCPCS codes simply state, “prefabricated, includes fitting and adjustment”, or do not have a corresponding off-the-shelf code, and are to be classified as custom fitted orthoses, and therefore may only be used to describe orthoses that require customization and/or modification by a certified orthotist or other properly trained individual. Orthoses described by these 51 codes that are delivered as OTS, without customization and/or modification must be billed using the appropriate not otherwise specified code (L1499, L2999, L3999).
