What is the CPT code for custom orthotics?

• A. L3000
• B. L4361
• C. L3260
• D. L1902

Answer: (A)

Custom foot orthotics are reported using HCPCS Level II codes, not CPT codes. The code L3000 is the appropriate HCPCS code for a custom-made foot orthosis (insert). This identifier specifically designates a device that is fabricated to fit the patient’s foot, distinguishing it from prefabricated or other non-custom options. The other codes listed correspond to different products or categories and would not represent a custom-made insert. If billing for the clinician’s service of fitting or training the patient to use the orthotics, you would also use a CPT code such as 97760 (orthotic management and training, lower extremity; initial).
