Short Leg Walking Cast Application

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 29425

A provider applies a cast that covers the lower leg from just below the knee down to the toes, built with a reinforced sole so the patient can walk on it. It is used to support and immobilize the lower leg, ankle, or foot while a fracture or other injury heals. The sturdy walking base means crutches usually are not needed for getting around.
