On June 5, 2025, the Durable Medical Equipment Medicare Administrative Contractors
(DME MAC) and Pricing, Data Analysis and Coding (PDAC) contractor jointly published the
Correct Coding Guidance for advanced upper extremity myoelectric control systems.
In compliance with this guidance, we are proud to announce that IBT’s Glide System has

This designation confirms that Glide meets Medicare’s criteria for pattern-recognition myoelectric control modules,
reinforcing its clinical credibility and streamlining reimbursement for providers.
We suggest the following L codes be used when billing for Glide:
