reply - billing same set of codes twice for same DOS
Yes you may bill the tests for each knee, with a necessary modifier, but may I offer my two cents working rejections on how to assist your claim getting out the door for procedures 84311, 83516, 86140, 87499 -
84311 is a spectrophotometry, analyte not elsewhere specified. Please be sure to add a procedure description.
I also deal with 83516 all the time and that test could be several different tests - please be sure to add procedure description.
87499 I'm unsure about - almost seems like an unlisted procedural code but not in either of my CPT books.
Thanks for listening & have a great evening,
