Application Of A Shoulder Spica Cast

Washington, DC rates for HCPCS 29055

A large cast is applied that wraps around the chest and continues down the arm, holding the shoulder in a set position. Keeping the shoulder and upper arm completely still lets a fracture or a repair heal in the right alignment. Padding is put on first and the cast is then moulded to the body.
