I need help with coding addition to primary procedure. I work for a clinic that treats varicose vein disease. Primary treatment is 36478 for the initial laser site. 36479 is an add-on code and is used for 2+ additional entry sites. My question is: in addition to the 36478, two more points of entry for the laser was performed. Is the CPT 36479 alone or would it be 36479 x2 for the two additional sites.

I hope someone is out there and can help. Thank you so much
