Compression Garments Reimbursement Policy

As announced in the March 2024 edition of Office Visit, effective June 15, 2024, we are introducing a new Compression Garments reimbursement policy for EmblemHealth and ConnectiCare. EmblemHealth and ConnectiCare will follow CMS reimbursement guidelines for compression garments/stockings when prescribed by a doctor and provided by a durable medical equipment (DME) supplier. We have updated the policy to reflect the new codes introduced as part of the quarterly update for January 2024. See the Revision History for details.
