I'm requesting an authorization for spinal surgery and I disagree with what the physician wants to authorize.
I'm new to neurosurgery and would like some guidance for my selection of codes with respect to the physicians selection.
Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Authorization for;
Cervical posterior decompression, laminoplasty, bilateral C4/5 keyhole foraminotomy
My suggestion; 63051, 77002-26, 69990
Physician's codes; 63051, 63001-59, 63020-50/59, 77002-26, 69990
