Toe fillers can be covered as a Medicare-reimbursable item. Considered a prosthetic device, the filler is billed using the L5000 code with an allowable of approximately $419.00. The prosthetic device is made of the toe filler and the insert as one complete orthotic. This replaces the need for a separate insert for the affected foot.
