Physical medicine and rehabilitation
About 97763: Subsequent orthotic or prosthetic management
Report 97763 for timed follow-up management or training involving an orthosis or prosthesis after the initial encounter.
A therapist or other qualified practitioner uses this service at a follow-up visit to assess and manage an orthosis or prosthesis, address fit or function, make appropriate adjustments, and train the patient in use. Examples include follow-up instruction in using a brace or prosthetic limb and reassessment of how the device is working during daily activities. The service is commonly furnished in outpatient rehabilitation or a practitioner’s office.
Choose 97763 for a subsequent encounter rather than the initial orthotic or prosthetic service; report it in 15-minute units. Document the device, the skilled management or training performed, the patient’s response, and the timed service. This therapy service is not divided into professional and technical components, so modifier 26 is not appropriate. CMS reduces practice expense for the second and later therapy units furnished on the same day.
