Has anyone heard of (or used!) a code to obtain separate payment for measuring a patient for pressure garments? Example: Patient comes in for Physical Therapy and is measured for a Jobst pressure garment to treat Lymphedema.

I would think the measurement portion would likely be part of the therapy (such as manual lymphatic drainage) because you'd want to be measuring at the level you want the garment to maintain?

Any thoughts out there? Thanks!
