I could use a little input here on this one. Our pain Dr planned on doing a Translaminar, transforaminal and claudal epidural injection. The pt had bony overgrowth that made the Dr terminate the procedure.
Now, skin anesthesia (lidocaine) was used. Can I consider this induction of anesthesia and bill out the procedures with a 53 mod? Not 100% sure - since it's a local.
Thanks.
