The Statistical Analysis Durable Medical Equipment Regional Carrier (SADMERC) is in the process of creating a classification list for products that would be classified as L0430 (TLSO, anterior-posterior-lateral control, with interface material, custom fitted). The SADMERC has been directed by the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) to develop this classification list. Upon completion and publication of this list, only the products included on the list may be billed using the code L0430. If a manufacturer or supplier thinks that another product meets the definition of this code, they should contact the SADMERC for a coding determination. Suppliers of L0430 may wish to contact their manufacturing source to determine if the manufacturer has provided the required information to the SADMERC.
