Good Day, Coding World!
In reviewing Medicare LCD L31766, we are translating for MIST Therapy- an indication of pain, sharp debridement, not an option (patient-specific), or 30 days stalled. The wound must show improvement after six treatments and the two-week mark. Treatments max out at 18 services within six weeks. After that period, when would the wound be eligible for MIST again?
