The DMEPOS fee schedule contains fee schedule amounts, floors, and ceilings for each procedure code subject to the DMEPOS fee schedule payment methodology. Although these fee schedule amounts are contained in a single file, their calculations have been mandated by three separate payment methodologies: DME, prosthetic and orthotic, and surgical dressings.
