Does Partnership EVER pay for 11719? Is it constantly denied because it's considered routine? I keep getting denials with all different DX and I'm new to podiatry so I'm trying to navigate through all the guidelines.....HELP
 
I don't know about partnership but most payers seem to follow Medicare guidelines. The most common reason is:


Routine foot care when the patient has a systemic disease, such as metabolic, neurologic, or peripheral vascular disease, of sufficient severity that performance of such services by a nonprofessional person would put the patient at risk.

Most payers have a written payment policy outlining when routine foot care can be covered. So, you may want to check the payers website or give them a ring.
