The code itself is easy to read. The payer question behind it is where suppliers lose money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Original Medicare doesn&#8217;t pay for it. Adult briefs sit outside every Medicare benefit category. That means no Part B fee schedule amount, no Local Coverage Determination, and no KX modifier to attest to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">T4523 gets paid by state Medicaid programs, and sometimes by a Medicare Advantage plan&#8217;s supplemental allowance. This guide covers the code definition, who actually pays, the modifiers that belong on a Medicare claim, documentation, and the T4521-T4545 size crosswalk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What HCPCS code T4523 covers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Official long description:<\/strong> Adult sized disposable incontinence product, brief\/diaper, large, each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Short description:<\/strong> Adult size brief\/diaper lg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">T4523 is a permanent national <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cms.gov\/medicare\/coding-billing\/healthcare-common-procedure-system\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">HCPCS Level II code<\/a> maintained by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). It sits in the T4521-T4545 incontinence supplies range. That range lives inside the wider T1000-T5999 block, which CMS describes as national codes established for state Medicaid agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That origin matters more than it looks. The T codes exist so state Medicaid programs and other non-Medicare payers have a shared way to describe supplies Medicare does not buy. Suppliers use T4523 to bill for large adult disposable briefs supplied to patients with urinary or fecal incontinence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The unit of service is &#8222;each&#8220;, meaning one brief or diaper per unit billed. Bill the number of individual items supplied, not the number of packs. A case of 72 briefs is 72 units, not one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">T4523 at a glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:separate;border-spacing:0;border-radius:12px;overflow:hidden;font-size:15px;line-height:1.5;margin:1.5em 0 2em;box-shadow:0 2px 12px rgba(0,0,0,0.08)\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"background:#121D36;color:#fff;padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;letter-spacing:0.3px;border-bottom:2px solid #2BADD4\">Field<\/th>\n<th style=\"background:#121D36;color:#fff;padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;letter-spacing:0.3px;border-bottom:2px solid #2BADD4\">Detail<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">HCPCS code<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">T4523<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0;background:#F9FAFB\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Code type<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Permanent national HCPCS Level II<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Maintained by<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0;background:#F9FAFB\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Code range<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">T4521-T4545 (incontinence supplies), inside the T1000-T5999 block of national codes established for state Medicaid agencies<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Medicare coverage code<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">M, meaning non-covered by Medicare<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0;background:#F9FAFB\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Medicare pricing indicator<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">00, meaning the service is not separately priced by Part B<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Unit of service<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Each (one brief or diaper per unit)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0;background:#F9FAFB\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Who pays<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">State Medicaid programs, some Medicare Advantage supplemental benefits, some commercial plans, and self-pay patients<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Status<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Active for 2026, with no termination date<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Medicare coverage for T4523<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Original Medicare does not cover T4523, and it never has. Medicare&#8217;s own coverage page says it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicare.gov\/coverage\/incontinence-supplies-adult-diapers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">doesn&#8217;t cover incontinence supplies<\/a> or adult diapers. The item is flagged &#8222;not covered&#8220;, and the patient pays 100% of the cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same holds for every adult brief, diaper and pull-on code in the T4521-T4528 range. CMS assigns T4523 coverage code M, which means non-covered by Medicare. Its pricing indicator is 00, so Part B does not price the item separately at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The basis is National Coverage Determination 280.1, the Durable Medical Equipment Reference List. It denies incontinence garments and pads as nonreusable supplies and hygienic items under section 1861(n) of the Social Security Act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Personal hygiene items are excluded by statute, whatever the patient&#8217;s clinical picture. Hearing aids carry the same kind of exclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why no LCD or KX modifier applies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a benefit category exclusion, not a medical necessity question. That distinction decides how you bill. Medical necessity rules only come into play once an item falls inside a Medicare benefit, and adult briefs never do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So there is nothing for a Local Coverage Determination to govern. LCD L33803, Urological Supplies, is the DME MAC policy suppliers often reach for here. It covers catheters and external urinary collection devices. It does not list T4521 through T4528, and its utilization limits and KX instructions apply to catheter codes only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A KX modifier attests that a policy&#8217;s coverage criteria have been met. With no policy and no benefit category, there is nothing to attest to. Appending KX to a T4523 line does not rehabilitate the claim, and no amount of physician documentation will either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>No Part B payment:<\/strong> There is no Medicare allowable, no 20% coinsurance calculation, and no Part B deductible to apply.<\/li><li><strong>No fee schedule entry:<\/strong> T4523 does not appear anywhere in the CMS <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cms.gov\/medicare\/payment\/fee-schedules\/dmepos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">DMEPOS fee schedule<\/a> public use file, and neither does any other T45xx code.<\/li><li><strong>No LCD:<\/strong> No DME MAC policy sets coverage criteria or monthly quantity limits for adult briefs.<\/li><li><strong>No payment category or jurisdiction:<\/strong> Because the item is unpriced, there is no DMEPOS payment category and no MAC jurisdiction rate to look up.<\/li><li><strong>Documentation doesn&#8217;t change the outcome:<\/strong> A physician order and an incontinence diagnosis are still worth holding for other payers, but they cannot make Medicare pay.<\/li><li><strong>Patient liability is the default:<\/strong> Tell the patient before you dispense, so the cost is never a surprise on delivery day.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Medicare Advantage and supplemental allowances<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some beneficiaries do get briefs paid for through Medicare, though not under the Part B benefit. Many Medicare Advantage plans add supplemental benefits, often as an over-the-counter or incontinence supply allowance. Those dollars sit outside the Part B benefit, so the plan sets its own rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check the plan&#8217;s evidence of coverage before you supply anything. Allowances are usually capped per quarter or per year, and many plans route the purchase through a contracted catalog vendor rather than a DMEPOS claim. None of it runs through an LCD, and none of it needs a KX modifier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Medicaid and private payer coverage for T4523<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">State Medicaid programs are the real coverage path for T4523. Most cover adult disposable briefs for beneficiaries with documented incontinence, and many publish an approved product list keyed to HCPCS codes. Programs in states such as North Carolina, Minnesota, Connecticut and South Dakota all do exactly that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond that, the detail varies a lot. Monthly quantity caps, prior authorization thresholds and age rules are all set state by state. Confirm the current policy and the fee schedule on your state&#8217;s Medicaid provider portal before you dispense, not after the claim is denied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>State Medicaid:<\/strong> The primary payer for T4523. Coverage, quantity caps and product lists differ by program, so check the one you bill.<\/li><li><strong>Prior authorization:<\/strong> Many programs require it above a set monthly quantity. Submit the clinical documentation before dispensing to avoid a retroactive denial.<\/li><li><strong>Dual-eligible patients:<\/strong> Medicare pays nothing here, so Medicaid is the payer. Some states still want a Medicare denial on file first, which is what a GY modifier produces.<\/li><li><strong>Medicare Advantage:<\/strong> Supplemental or over-the-counter allowances may cover briefs. Verify the allowance and the vendor route with the plan.<\/li><li><strong>Commercial plans:<\/strong> Coverage depends on plan design. Call provider services and get the answer in writing before you order stock.<\/li><li><strong>Self-pay:<\/strong> Where no payer covers the product, quote the retail price up front and document that the patient accepted it.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The note only has to say who pays and what the cap is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reimbursement rates for T4523<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no Medicare reimbursement rate for T4523. The code carries no fee schedule amount, because Part B does not price it. So any &#8222;Medicare rate&#8220; you find on an aggregator site is not a CMS figure. Payment amounts come from the payer that actually covers the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For most claims that means your state Medicaid fee schedule, and those rates vary widely between states. Treat the state schedule as the authoritative number, and re-check it at each program update. Margins on briefs are thin enough that a stale rate shows up quickly in the accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The contrast with covered equipment is what trips suppliers up. A bed pan billed as E0275 does have a published Medicare allowable, because that item sits inside a benefit category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:separate;border-spacing:0;border-radius:12px;overflow:hidden;font-size:15px;line-height:1.5;margin:1.5em 0 2em;box-shadow:0 2px 12px rgba(0,0,0,0.08)\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"background:#121D36;color:#fff;padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;letter-spacing:0.3px;border-bottom:2px solid #2BADD4\">Payer<\/th>\n<th style=\"background:#121D36;color:#fff;padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;letter-spacing:0.3px;border-bottom:2px solid #2BADD4\">What it pays for T4523<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Original Medicare (Part B)<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Nothing.

Search it for T4523 and you get no rows at all, because Part B doesn&#8217;t price adult briefs. Build your pricing from your state Medicaid fee schedule and your own acquisition cost instead. Note the monthly quantity cap next to the rate, so the two are never checked separately.<\/p>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    \n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to bill HCPCS code T4523<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start by confirming who the payer is, because that decides everything downstream. For a Medicaid beneficiary you bill the state program under its own enrollment rules. For a Medicare Advantage member you follow the plan&#8217;s supplemental benefit process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">T4523 is billed on the CMS-1500 claim form. Place of service is usually the patient&#8217;s home (POS 12) or a nursing facility (POS 31 or 32). The unit count must reflect individual briefs supplied, and billing per box is a common and expensive error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using standardized medical forms for order intake keeps the size, quantity and diagnosis in the same place on every order. That is what makes a batch of supply claims quick to check before submission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Applicable modifiers for T4523<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The modifiers that matter on T4523 are the liability ones, not the medical necessity ones. You are usually billing Medicare for a formal denial rather than for payment, because a state program asked to see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:separate;border-spacing:0;border-radius:12px;overflow:hidden;font-size:15px;line-height:1.5;margin:1.5em 0 2em;box-shadow:0 2px 12px rgba(0,0,0,0.08)\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"background:#121D36;color:#fff;padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;letter-spacing:0.3px;border-bottom:2px solid #2BADD4\">Modifier<\/th>\n<th style=\"background:#121D36;color:#fff;padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;letter-spacing:0.3px;border-bottom:2px solid #2BADD4\">Description<\/th>\n<th style=\"background:#121D36;color:#fff;padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;letter-spacing:0.3px;border-bottom:2px solid #2BADD4\">When to use<\/th>\n<th style=\"background:#121D36;color:#fff;padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;letter-spacing:0.3px;border-bottom:2px solid #2BADD4\">What it does on a T4523 claim<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">GY<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Item statutorily excluded, or does not meet the definition of any Medicare benefit<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">On any claim you send to Medicare for T4523, since adult briefs are excluded by statute<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Produces the formal denial that many state Medicaid programs want on file before they pay<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0;background:#F9FAFB\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">GX<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Notice of liability issued, voluntary under payer policy<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">When you give the patient a voluntary Advance Beneficiary Notice of Noncoverage before dispensing<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Records that the patient was told they are liable.

The size, the order, the monthly cap, the prior authorization and the payer rules all have to line up before a clean claim goes out. Practice management software like Pabau keeps those pieces on one record instead of four.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pabau&#8217;s claims management software handles HCPCS code entry and modifier selection in the same workflow as the patient&#8217;s documentation. So the person submitting the claim can see whether the order, the authorization and the delivery note are all on file, without opening another system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.pabau.com\/cdn\/attachments\/pulse\/content-engine\/billing_codes\/hcpcs-code-t4523\/automate-claims-through-healthcode.webp\" alt=\"Automate claims and billing with Pabau\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Pabau submits and tracks each supply claim, so a T4523 line and the paperwork behind it never drift apart.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px;width:800px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reorder reminders, expiring authorizations and missing delivery confirmations all get flagged before the claim goes out, so your team spends its time on the exceptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.pabau.com\/cdn\/attachments\/pulse\/content-engine\/billing_codes\/hcpcs-code-t4523\/automated-communication-in-pabau.webp\" alt=\"Automated communication in Pabau\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Automated messages tell patients when the next supply order is due, so reorders don&#8217;t slip past the monthly Medicaid cap.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px;width:800px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Supply billing rarely sits on its own.

Once you accept the exclusion, the work gets simpler. Identify the payer first, then meet that payer&#8217;s quantity and authorization rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So drop the Part B habits. No KX, no LCD lookup, no fee schedule search. Use GY when you need a Medicare denial for the state. Keep the order and delivery record tight, and check your state&#8217;s cap before you ship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Get that right and briefs stop being a write-off line in your accounts. <a href=\"https:\/\/pabau.com\/book-demo\/\">Book a demo<\/a> to see how Pabau keeps supply orders, documentation and claims together on one patient record.<\/p>\n\n\n        <div

class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785753058148\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">What does HCPCS code T4523 cover?<\/h3> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">HCPCS code T4523 covers one adult sized disposable incontinence product, brief\/diaper, large, each. Enrolled suppliers use it to bill state Medicaid programs and other non-Medicare payers. It covers large adult disposable briefs supplied to patients with urinary or fecal incontinence. It does not cover pull-on style products, liners, or any size other than large.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785753058149\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does Medicare cover HCPCS code T4523?<\/h3> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No. Original Medicare does not cover T4523 or any adult brief, diaper or pull-on code in the T4521-T4528 range. Adult incontinence garments are statutorily excluded as personal hygiene items under National Coverage Determination 280.1, so the patient pays 100% of the cost. CMS lists T4523 with coverage code M, meaning non-covered by Medicare. Some Medicare Advantage plans do cover briefs through a supplemental or over-the-counter allowance, which is separate from the Part B benefit.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785753058150\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is the reimbursement rate for T4523?<\/h3> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">There is no Medicare reimbursement rate for T4523. Part B does not price the code, and it does not appear in the CMS DMEPOS fee schedule. So any Medicare rate published for it by a third-party aggregator is not a CMS figure. Payment amounts come from the payer that covers the product, and for most claims that is a state Medicaid program. Those rates vary by state, so check your state Medicaid fee schedule for the current amount and the monthly quantity cap.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785753058151\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">What modifiers can be used with HCPCS code T4523?<\/h3> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The useful modifiers on T4523 are liability modifiers. GY reports an item that is statutorily excluded from Medicare. It produces the formal denial many state Medicaid programs want on file before they pay. GX records that a voluntary Advance Beneficiary Notice of Noncoverage was issued, and it is reported alongside GY. The KX modifier has no role, because there is no Local Coverage Determination for adult briefs to attest to. GA is also the wrong choice, since it applies to covered items denied as not medically necessary.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785753058152\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is the difference between T4521, T4522, T4523, and T4524?<\/h3> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">All four describe adult sized disposable incontinence briefs or diapers, and they differ only by size. T4521 is small, T4522 is medium, T4523 is large, and T4524 is extra large. The code must match the size actually dispensed to the patient. The matching pull-on codes are separate: T4525 is small, T4526 is medium, T4527 is large, and T4528 is extra large.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785753058153\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">What documentation is required to bill T4523?<\/h3> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Most state Medicaid programs expect a written physician order naming the product, size, monthly quantity and diagnosis, plus ICD-10-CM documentation of urinary or fecal incontinence. Add the prior authorization number where the state requires one, a delivery confirmation showing what was supplied and when, and any signed patient acknowledgment. All of it should be on file before the product is dispensed, not after the claim is submitted.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785753058154\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">How do you bill for adult incontinence supplies using HCPCS codes?<\/h3> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Start by confirming the payer, because Original Medicare does not cover these supplies. Select the correct code from the T4521-T4545 range by product form and size. Then bill the state Medicaid program on the CMS-1500 form, with the patient&#8217;s diagnosis and a unit count reflecting individual items supplied. Follow the state&#8217;s quantity cap and prior authorization rules. Where a Medicare denial is required first, submit the claim with a GY modifier to obtain it.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Original Medicare doesn&#8217;t cover HCPCS code T4523.

Those rates vary by state, so check your state Medicaid fee schedule for the current amount and the monthly quantity cap.","inLanguage":"de"},"inLanguage":"de"},{"@type":"Question","@id":"https:\/\/pabau.com\/de\/procedure-codes\/hcpcs-code-t4523\/#faq-question-1785753058151","position":4,"url":"https:\/\/pabau.com\/de\/procedure-codes\/hcpcs-code-t4523\/#faq-question-1785753058151","name":"What modifiers can be used with HCPCS code T4523?","answerCount":1,"acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"The useful modifiers on T4523 are liability modifiers. GY reports an item that is statutorily excluded from Medicare. It produces the formal denial many state Medicaid programs want on file before they pay. GX records that a voluntary Advance Beneficiary Notice of Noncoverage was issued, and it is reported alongside GY. The KX modifier has no role, because there is no Local Coverage Determination for adult briefs to attest to. GA is also the wrong choice, since it applies to covered items denied as not medically necessary.","inLanguage":"de"},"inLanguage":"de"},{"@type":"Question","@id":"https:\/\/pabau.com\/de\/procedure-codes\/hcpcs-code-t4523\/#faq-question-1785753058152","position":5,"url":"https:\/\/pabau.com\/de\/procedure-codes\/hcpcs-code-t4523\/#faq-question-1785753058152","name":"What is the difference between T4521, T4522, T4523, and T4524?","answerCount":1,"acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"All four describe adult sized disposable incontinence briefs or diapers, and they differ only by size.
