We know that many people are still adjusting to the new insurance coverage for compression garments and supplies, and unsure about what information must be provided with each order. We are pleased to share with you two recorded webinars aimed at answering many of the most common questions.
This first webinar is led by Linda Roherty, PT, CLT-LANA, with Guenter Klose. This second webinar is led by SunMed Medical, with the National Lymphedema Network. Together, they provide a wealth of information for clinicians and suppliers.
Additional information is also available in this Billing and Coding publication and on the official CMS page for Lymphedema Compression Treatment Items.
We also have an easy-to-print one-pager that is pictured below, which is perfect for patients, clinicians, and/or suppliers who need an overview of the new coverage.
Remember, if you have any insurance other than traditional Medicare (including Medicare Advantage) and your plan has not yet adopted the same comprehensive coverage as traditional Medicare, please visit our Take Action page.
And if you’ve been denied coverage or received insufficient coverage under any insurance plan, please use our Denial Reporting Form. This information helps us to track where additional advocacy is needed.
Thank you for your continued engagement!
