Hello, we are getting a TON of denials from our home plan BCBS here in MI when we bill the DEXAs (77080-77085). Per ICD-10 the screening code needs to be listed 1st and then the reason for the screening and then any findings. This is how we code. Example: PT is a 74 year old post menopausal female who is in for screening...she has osteopenia of the left hip.... DX Z13.820, Z78.0, M85.852. This is getting rejected by BCBS almost every time. Is anyone else experiencing this or have different way of billing?
