Hi!
I am working a denial from Medicare that I need some help with. The procedure code 11402 was performed in the office with diagnosis code 782.2.
The patient had an abdominal wall mass.
Medicare is denying the dx code stating that it is not valid for this procedure.
I have searched all over and no dx code I have found will pass my "code correct" for the Medicare LCD's.
Can someone point me to a LCD of allowed dx codes for this CPT or is there a dx code I am missing?
Or is there a different a CPT code that I should be using instead.
Thank you in advance for the help!
