I am confusing myself - can someone set me straight?

If you have an ankle fracture and the MD puts on an ankle brace - HCPCS
L4350 can you charge a CPT 29515 - Application of short leg splint with it?

Or a Q4046/Q4048 with a CPT 29515? I an new and confused . . .
 
I'm pretty sure you can't charge for application of a DME which an L code indicates.

But the Q codes are casting supplies which can be reported with the corresponding CPT code.
 
Thanks! That is what I thought, but you know sometimes how you second guess yourself! Thanks for the clarification!
