Hello, one of my surgeons performed cpt 24076 in the office setting with local anesthesia. Insurance is denying this stating "invalid location". Do I amend the claim with excision and intermediate repair instead? thank you
What was documented in the operative or procedure report? Did anyone check the patient's health plan for the site of service policy or any policy to make sure that this procedure was allowed within the office?

Was it coded correctly in the first place?
