Medicare podiatry coverage varies based on the conditions a patient is seen for and if the treatments are deemed medically necessary by Medicare.  Often, other insurance companies closely follow the guidelines set forth by medicare.  The legal documents that dictate medical necessity and coverage are called LCD’s or Local Coverage Determinations, and are published through out the year.  To insure you have the most current LCD’s you can google Medicare LCD’s or try to find the by going to the CMS.gov website. (good luck they are hard to find)
