On May 22 and 23, Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Representatives Glenn Thompson (R-PA) and Mike Thompson (D-CA) introduced S. 1191/H.R. 2599, the Medicare Orthotics and Prosthetics Improvement Act of 2017, in the 115th Congress (2017-18). The three have introduced similar bills in prior sessions of Congress. This bill would separate O&P from durable medical equipment, and allow orthotists’ and prosthetists’ notes to be part of the medical record for determining medical necessity, among other things.
