Hi Friends,

Please help me with this !

What would be correct CPT code for Left Median Nerve Block done for Carpel Tunnel syndrome ?

Would CPT 64450 ( Other Peripheral Nerve Block ) be the correct code ?
 
If it was done during a carpal tunnel release, then it is included in the procedure, I believe. I don't think that you can code it separately. The 64450 would be used if the nerve block was the only thing done for the patient, maybe for pain relief, etc.
