I have tried billing CPT code 97597 and keep getting it denied.
I have used several ICD-10 codes and NONE seem to work.
Help!
 
You would need to use the diagnosis the provider documented. So what was documented as the diagnosis. Is it an ulcer, a trauma wound, a surgical incision?
 
Can 97597 can be used for Keratoderma? That is what was used in the past by previous biller. But it seems to not be working. What was documented was for an ulcer and wound. (separate patients, both denied)
 
These diagnosis do not sound correct for the 97597. Do you have a procedure note? Is it possible you are billing the wrong procedure code?
