Question L5940/L5950

Sharidy Hathcock

I am curious regarding the use of L-5940/L5950. These codes are transtibial/transfemoral ultra light material and was curious how exactly they are to be used or how the practitioner population is using them. I have heard recently that CMS has stated that these L-codes are to only be used with socket replacement codes. Has anyone else heard anything about theses codes? Can these codes be used with a new prosthesis or replacement of major parts? Any feedback is much appreciated!

Thanks for your time,
