I have capsulitis.  Can I use this pad or is there a better product?

Question:

Is there a billable code for metatarsal pads in treatment of Morton's Neuroma or is this a self-pay item?

Answer:

This is a self-pay item - as far as we know, there is no HCPCS code for this item.

Question:

Is this an adhesive backed pad? If not, how does it stay in one place?

Answer:

The side that faces down into the shoe is gel and will be tacky enough to keep the pad from slipping. The top of the pad is smooth to reduce friction. But no, no adhesive.
