Cast Windowing Procedure

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 29730

This procedure cuts a small opening, or window, into an existing cast without removing the entire cast. It allows a clinician to inspect, clean, or treat the skin or a wound underneath while the rest of the limb stays supported and protected. The cut-out section can often be taped back in place afterward.
