The rules say that clinical assessments of beneficiary rehabilitation potential must be based on the following 
classification levels: 
 
Level 0: Does not have the ability or potential to ambulate or transfer safely with or without assistance and a 
prosthesis does not enhance their quality of life or mobility. 
Level 1: Has the ability or potential to use a prosthesis for transfers or ambulation on level surfaces at fixed 
cadence. Typical of the limited and unlimited household ambulator. 
Level 2: Has the ability or potential for ambulation with the ability to traverse low level environmental barriers 
such as curbs, stairs or uneven surfaces. Typical of the limited community ambulator. 
Level 3: Has the ability or potential for ambulation with variable cadence. Typical of the community ambulator 
who has the ability to traverse most environmental barriers and may have vocational, therapeutic, or exercise 
activity that demands prosthetic utilization beyond simple locomotion. 
Level 4: Has the ability or potential for prosthetic ambulation that exceeds basic ambulation skills, exhibiting 
high impact, stress, or energy levels. Typical of the prosthetic demands of the child, active adult, or athlete. 
 
The records must document the beneficiarys current functional capabilities and his/her expected functional 
potential, including an explanation for the difference, if that is the case. It is recognized, within the functional 
classification hierarchy, that bilateral amputees often cannot be strictly bound by functional level 
classifications. A flex-walk system or equal (L5981) is covered for beneficiaries whose functional level is 3 or 
above. You can find this rule in the Local Coverage Determination for Lower Limb Prostheses, L33787.

persons who have had continued illicit injection drug use since the prior negative screening test. A single 
screening test is covered for adults who do not meet the high risk definition above, but who were born from 
1945 through 1965. You can find this information in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet 
Only Manual, Publication 100-03, Medicare National Coverage Determination Manual, Screening for Hepatitis

The rules say that coverage of services incident to the professional services of a physician or non-physician 
practitioner (NPP) is limited to situations in which there is direct supervision of auxiliary personnel. Direct 
supervision in the office setting means the physician must be present in the office suite and immediately 
available and able to provide assistance and direction throughout the time the service is performed. You can 
find this information in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet Only Manual, Publication 
100-02, Medicare Benefit Policy Manual, Chapter 15, Section 60.

must meet all incident-to requirements in Section 60 of Chapter 15 of the Benefit Policy Manual. For example, 
when therapy services are billed as incident to a physician/NPP services, the requirement for direct supervision 
by the physician/NPP and other incident to requirements must be met, even though the service is provided by a 
licensed therapist who may perform the services unsupervised in other settings. You can find this information

Benefit Policy Manual, Chapter 15, Section 230.5.
