based on the beneficiarys potential functional abilities. Potential functional ability is based on the reasonable 
expectations of the prosthetist, and treating practitioner, considering factors including, but not limited to: 
 
1. The beneficiarys past history (including prior prosthetic use if applicable); and 
2. The beneficiarys current condition including the status of the residual limb and the nature of other medical

3. The condition of the device, or part of the device, requires repairs and the cost of such repairs would be more 
than 60% of the cost of a replacement device, or of the part being replaced.

practitioner for Medicare payment as a condition of payment. You can find this rule in the Centers for

(L33318). 
 
The rules say that knee orthoses are also covered for a beneficiary who is ambulatory and has knee instability. 
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 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. You can find this rule in the Local 
Coverage Determination (LCD) - Knee Orthoses (L33318).
