Podiatry Services - Routine Foot Care and Debridement of Nails

While the Medicare Program generally excludes routine foot care services from coverage, there are specific indications or exceptions under which there are program benefits. Medicare payment may be made for routine foot care when the patient has a systemic disease, such as metabolic, neurologic, or peripheral vascular disease, of sufficient severity that performance of such services by a nonprofessional person would put the patient at risk. During this webinar, we will review the Local Coverage Determination policy for Routine Foot Care and Debridement of Nails (L33636) and the Related Local Coverage Article (A57759).
