Wiki Charging for Lidocaine

[sallen]

Can you charge for Lidocaine when using it prior to mole removal or pellet implants? If so, what would the code be?

Local anesthetic is global to the procedure.

We don't charge for the Lidocaine anymore, it is included in with the procedure. I do believe the code was deleted for lidocaine. But I could be wrong.
