The rules say that a knee immobilizer without joints (L1830), or a knee orthosis with adjustable knee joints 
(L1832, L1833), or a knee orthosis, with an adjustable flexion and extension joint that provides both medial-
lateral and rotation control (L1843, L1845, L1851, L1852), are covered if the beneficiary has had recent injury 
to or a surgical procedure on the knee(s). Refer to the diagnoses listed in the Groups 2 or 4 ICD-10 Codes in 
the LCD-related Policy Article. 
 
Knee orthoses L1832, L1833, L1843, L1845, L1851 and L1852 are also covered for a beneficiary who is 
ambulatory and has knee instability due to a condition specified in the Group 4 ICD-10 Codes in the LCD-
related Policy Article. 
 
A knee orthosis, Swedish type, prefabricated (L1850) is covered for a beneficiary who is ambulatory and has 
knee instability due to genu recurvatum - hyperextended knee, congenital or acquired (refer to the Group 5 
ICD-10 Codes in the LCD-related Policy Article). 
 
For codes L1832, L1833, L1843, L1845, L1850, L1851 and L1852, knee instability must be documented by 
examination of the beneficiary and objective description of joint laxity (e.g., varus/valgus instability, 
anterior/posterior Drawer test). 
 
Claims for L1832, L1833, L1843, L1845, L1850, L1851 or L1852 will be denied as not reasonable and 
necessary when the beneficiary does not meet the above criteria for coverage. For example, they will be denied 
if only pain or a subjective description of joint instability is documented.

The rules say effective July 1, 2017, laboratories with 1 to 4 gene(s) on their targeted NGS panel should use 
CPT 81479 and one (1) UOS along with their test identifier (DEX Z-Code) to represent this service on their 
claims. Tier 1 and/or Tier 2 individual biomarker CPT codes should not be used for a single gene or any 
combination of genes when testing is performed as part of a NGS or other multiplexing technology panel. As 
CGP testing is not defined as a targeted panel by MolDX, and it is a test not currently satisfactorily described 
by any existing CPT code. Therefore, to report a CGP service, test providers should use CPT code 81479 at this 
time, in addition to the approved DEX Z-Code for the test. Coverage of CGP is limited to one test per surgical 
specimen and precludes the use of any other molecular testing on that specimen. For NGS-based tests that do 
not fit under the above definitions of targeted or Comprehensive panels, billing with the Not Otherwise 
Classified (NOC) code 81479 along with the approved DEX Z-Code identifier is appropriate. You can find 
this in the Local Coverage Article: Billing and Coding: MolDX: Targeted and Comprehensive Genomic Profile
