CCI Edits Bundle 76005 Incorrectly
According to Scott Groudine, MD, an anesthesiologist in Albany, N.Y., this is not correct. "It was an error that has been identified and corrected. The procedures are not bundled and can be billed separately," he says. Anesthesiology coders and billers should check with their local Medicare carriers to see if the codes have been unbundled and may want to resubmit claims for fluoroscopic guidance that were previously denied.
