Trish CPC-A:confused:

I am new to coding and bill for BCBS. I keep running across this issue and I am at a total loss. I kept getting denials for 94060 w 96372 (inclusive) and 94640 w a 96372 (inclusive). We are billing for the drug also, but why the 96372 when it is not given as an injection? Please help. New to all of this and have no mentor or coder to bounce questions off.
Thank you in advance for your time and help!!
 
There is an NCCI edit for injections. What is being injected? Its possible modifier may just be needed on the injection if its unrelated.
 
injections

They are usually dexamethasone sodium phosphate (J1100)and methylprednisolone acetate (J1040). No where in the record does it show it was a true injection. I thought this was more inhalation with a breathing device.
Thank you again..... :O)
