I have a UHC claim denial for revenue code 0710 for missing the associated CPT/HCPCS code. I assumed revenue code didn't require a CPT code. The patient underwent a septoplasty and was admitted to observation overnight, for which revenue code 0710 was billed without a CPT code.
I was thinking to remove revenue code 0710 and rebill with procedure code 99231 (subsequent hospital inpatient or observation) with revenue code 0987.
I truly appreciate any input or advice.
