What is the CPT Code for a Custom-Fit LSO Brace with Rigid Shell Design?

Custom-Fit LSO Brace with Rigid Shell Design HCPCS Code L0639

To bill for custom-fit lumbar-sacral orthoses (LSOs) with rigid shell design, you'll need to use HCPCS Level II codes, which are designed for healthcare products and services that fall outside the CPT system. All bracing and orthotic devices are categorized under the "L" series of HCPCS codes.

HCPCS Code:

This code applies to custom-fit lumbar-sacral orthoses (LSOs) with rigid anterior and posterior shells for sagittal-coronal control. These braces provide comprehensive stabilization from the sacrococcygeal junction to the T-9 vertebra and from the symphysis pubis to the xyphoid. Overlapping rigid materials and stabilizing closures ensure structural strength, while optional soft interfaces and pendulous abdomen designs enhance patient comfort. Custom-fitted by healthcare professionals, these orthoses deliver precise stabilization and ensure Medicare compliance.
