I'm needing some input on billing a tentomy with wrist fracture code 25609. All three of the surgeons often do a tentomy of the brachioradialis tendon along with the fracture reduction. I use the 25290 tenotomy code and when I run code check, I do not get any coding edits. BWC is denying the 25290 and our collection specialist thinks maybe they shouldn't be billed together unless there is a separate diagnosis. Should they not be billed together? Any ideas, feedback, etc. Once again, I appreciate all the help I get from this forum. Paula in Dublin, Ohio
