This order makes two small wording changes in France’s reimbursable products and services list for major orthopedic equipment. It removes the term “for hemiplegic patients” from one lower-limb orthopedic device code and removes the word “swiveling” from one trunk corset seat code. The change mainly affects manufacturers, orthotists, billing teams, and healthcare providers who use these reimbursement codes. They should update product descriptions, billing references, and internal documentation once the order takes effect 13 days after publication.
