PROCEDURE: Integrated nerve block

Posterior tibial nerve was blocked
Saphenous nerve was blocked
Sural nerve was blocked

Same procedure was performed on both left and right ankle.

I reported as 64450 59 LT 51 with quantity of 3 same on RT, but the payer denies and says its experimental. Any ideas please....
 
First what was the dx code(s) second you should not bill these codes with units greater than 1 they each need a seaparte line item using the 59 modifier.
