I'm going around in circles with this one....
If we are billing 90658, what is the appropriate injection code? 90471 or
G0008. It used to be that only Medicare would accept G0008 and private companies would not but now all payers are required to accept level II codes.
I can't seem to find anything that differentiates the two when billed with 90658. To top it off, our doctors seem to get paid whether they bill with 90471 or G0008, and the reimbursement is approx the same.
Anyone have any info about this?
