I'm looking for some guidance with regards to billing this code when multiple branches are involved. We have a TMD provider who provided treatment for Trigeminal Neuralgia for both the maxillary and mandibular alveolar arches (left side for both). The code description does not specify to bill per branch, it is not a code that is billed with laterality, however the MUE does have 2(3). I'm wondering if anyone has any guidance as to whether it should be billed once (encompassing both the maxillary and mandibular branches) or billed twice with a 59?
