Guys,
Let me clarify. The difference is in the details. If this proposal is approved, Physicians, therapists, remain certified their “fitters” will no longer have exemption to do customs under them. Neither will Manufacturer reps.
It is so difficult to bring good news to this industry. Every manufacturer is fighting this if they do billing programs! As a licensed Orthotist, I thought we as Orthotist may want to comment too! The responses have been boarder line smart elick like I’m the bad guy. Just go back to sleep. I will wake you when it’s over. This is in a comment period right now through CMS under this link:
