Cerv col sr foam 2pc pre ots

This code describes a prefabricated, two-piece cervical collar constructed from semi-rigid thermoplastic foam. It is designed to provide moderate immobilization and support to the cervical spine, restricting flexion, extension, and lateral bending. This type of orthosis is used to stabilize the neck following injury or surgery, or to manage chronic conditions.

Use this code for the provision of a semi-rigid, prefabricated cervical collar made of thermoplastic foam. This is typically indicated for conditions such as cervical sprains/strains, stable cervical fractures, post-surgical stabilization, or degenerative disc disease. Documentation should clearly specify the medical necessity for cervical immobilization and the type of collar provided.

• Ensure documentation specifies "two-piece" and "semi-rigid thermoplastic foam" to support this specific code.
• Do not confuse with soft cervical collars (e.g., L0120) or more rigid custom-fabricated orthoses.
• Verify medical necessity and proper fitting by a qualified healthcare professional are documented.
