The office authorization personnel got an authorization for Aetna Duals insurance for J2274/C9290 for a pain pump refill. From what I'm finding C9290 is only billable in an ASC setting and not an office setting.

The pain pump meds are: Morphine Sulfate Pentahydate 100gm/904mg+Bupivicaine HCI 25gm/800mg+Sodium Chloride 40ml+Sterile Water 20ml.

I believe this should still be billed as either J7999 or J3490. Any input on this would be greatful.
