NEED HELP!!! We have a center (outpatient hospital) that performed ultrasound guided lesion localization (76942 and 19290) The center is providing the equipment but a surgeon is coming into the operating suite and placing the wire. Does the hospital code both the 76942 and 19290 and get paid under the OPPS package payment? I don't know if we are to charge the 19290.
