Nonsurgical Treatment of a Broken Ankle Bone (Talus)

Washington, DC rates for HCPCS 28430

This treats a fracture of the talus, the ankle bone that sits between the shin bone and heel bone, without any incision or surgery. It's used when the bone is already properly aligned, so the doctor immobilizes the foot and ankle with a cast rather than manually repositioning the bone.
