    Wiki OMS coding for xrays

    I work at an oral surgeons office and our Implant procedures require multiple X-rays over a period of treatment. Our Dr.s are interested in grouping the X-rays together under one code for one fee. Is this possible? I'm very skeptical. If it is, which code is applicable?

    Wiki Orthognathic surgery

    When billing for ortho surgery and using an assistant, does the 80 go on 21141? Or does the assistant get his own code with 80? I would think the 80 is amended to the original procedure code. We're also using 21196 with an assistant. Same question as above and am I adding 51? THANK YOU!!!
