Hello! Why is Medicare denying injections (20610 or 20611) that are billed under the PA (Physician Assistant). I understand that Medicare changed their guidelines in 2015 but WHY? That is the whole purpose we HAVE a PA so she can alleviate some of the work off the doctor but now she will not be paid for the work that she does. Is their a workaround? I'm adhering to the LCD guidelines and ensuring that the diagnosis is good and medically necessary per the notes. What am I doing wrong? They deny every single one as NON-COVERED and NOT medically necessary.... but it is!!!!
