My question is:
Must the doctor always examine the ears, nose and throat when using the code 92502. Which is otolarygologic exam under general anesthesia?
My thought is yes.
Also, the code description does not mention use of any microscope, so either way it has to be exam of all 3, I am thinking.
Any thoughts out there?
Also, I've seen in an Op Report the use of binocular microscope for inspection of the ear and then 92502 is billed when I think it should have been 92504??
Help a sister out here. Thanks
