Question--
Physicians are documenting femoral and sciatic blocks. Sometimes femoral and popliteal blocks done at the same time.
Is it appropriate to bill for both a femoral and sciatic block at the same time? Is there guidance to refer to either way?
Thanks in advance.
ps--I also posted this question in the anesthesia section, so you can see I really need some input on coding for these 'double' blocks.
