Correct Coding - Incorrect Use of HCPCS Code K0108 To Bill for a Drive Wheel Gear Box

Recent reports have identified that suppliers are billing Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) code K0108 (WHEELCHAIR COMPONENT OR ACCESSORY, NOT OTHERWISE SPECIFIED) for a drive wheel gear box. This miscellaneous code is not the correct code to use for billing. The correct code to bill is:

• E2369 POWER WHEELCHAIR COMPONENT, DRIVE WHEEL GEAR BOX, REPLACEMENT ONLY.

Refer to the Wheelchair Options and Accessories LCD and related Policy Article for additional information.
