Hi guys. The NCCI manual states:
"The global surgical package includes the administration of fluids and drugs during the operative
procedure. The CPT codes 96360-96377 shall not be reported separately for that operative
procedure. In an outpatient hospital facility, the administration of fluids and drugs during, or for,
an operative procedure are included services and are not separately reportable (e.g., CPT codes
96360-96377)."
Does this apply in the office? If a prostate biopsy is performed, should we not bill 96372 for the injection of antibiotics?
Thanks!
