Hello,

I have a provider who did an injection for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. I’m not quite sure how to code for it and would like some guidance.

Here is the procedure note:
“Triamcinolone NDC 16714-130-01 40mg/mL injected into right deltoid after cleansing with alcohol lot AP 220568 expiration 11/20/24 tolerated injection well for acute vertigo flare.”

My first thought is to use CPT code 96372 since it was injected into a muscle, but I wasn’t sure if that was correct. Any input is appreciated!
