The following muscles were injected. Below is what I am coding, but I am concerned about the trap muscle, it is not included in upper extremity area, but the neck area I believe. Is my coding correct/making sense? Do I need to add another code for the trap?
64642-LT=Lower Left Extremity-Adductor(1); +64643-RT=Right Lower Extremity-Adductor(1); 64644-RT=Biceps, brachioradialis, FDS, FDP,trapezius(5); +64645-LT=Biceps,brachioradialis, FDS,FDP, pronator teres, FPL, trapezius(7)
Any examples I have researched do not include the trap muscle as part of the lesson, so I am out of luck there. Thank you.
