*****Need help with coding for the facility charges please!
I am billing for an outpatient facility.
Patient had:
1. Breast wire localized lumpectomy with breast ultrasound guided wire placement.
2. Axillary sentinel node biopsy.
The radiologist performed the ultrasound guided wire placement prior to the operative procedure.
Codes we are billing for the facility are: 19301 LT, 38525, 38900,19285 XE LT, 19499 LT, A4648
Is it appropriate to bill code A4648 for the supply of this device?
Thank you for your assistance in the matter.
