I have a doctor wanting to bill 20986 which is new in 2008, however, I don't see an RVU associated with that code. I'm curious what others do when there is not an RVU for a code as far as setting a price?
Suggestions?
Thanks,
Jennifer
 
It is an add on code which is probably why you do not see RVUs associated. I will do some more research to see if I can locate more information on it.

What Medicare carrier are you with and did you check out their fee schedule or any policies they have on add on codes?

thanks

I made a few calls and an average charge in this area ranges from $190.00 to $300.00. Wish I could have narrowed it down for you but.....maybe it provides you with enough information to drill down to a charge for your physician.

thanks
