MD ordered 76811-Ultrasound tech was not able to visualize enough of the fetal anatomy to meet requirements for 76811. She coded her scan as 76805, since what she documented more than met the requirements of 76805. The patient returned another day for a f/u u/s, so the remaining elements of 76811 could be visualized and documented. What is the best way to bill the 2nd ultrasound? The second ultrasound was not done for a suspected fetal anamoly, it was done due to lack of visualization with first scan. How is everyone else coding situations like this?
