I've previously seen that we cannot bill 20670 in a global period when done in the office. Is this still accurate for today coding rules?
 
Correct. From what I understand, if it's superficial and removed in the office, it's included in the global period. If it requires a trip to the OR under anesthesia, it can be billed w/58 modifier.

what if it does not require an OR visit...and is outside of the global period... can it be done in the office at that point?
