About L0490
L0490 is an HCPCS Level II code in the L series (orthotic and prosthetic procedures and devices), describing tlso, sagittal-coronal control, one piece rigid plastic shell, with overlapping reinforced anterior, with multiple straps and closures, posterior extends from sacrococcygeal junction and terminates at or before the t-9 vertebra, anterior extends from symphysis pubis to xiphoid, anterior opening, restricts gross trunk motion in sagittal and coronal planes, prefabricated, includes fitting and adjustment.
It was added to HCPCS effective 01/01/2003.
Its Medicare coverage code is "C", meaning coverage is left to the Medicare contractor's judgment.
