When injecting Kelalog into a scar, would you use 11900 or 96372?
 
I always billed 11900 since its something being directly injected into the lesion.

I think 96372 is more for medicine injected into the muscle to be absorbed in the body.
 
Scar injection

Scar injection would be (intralesional injection) 11900 and J3301, good luck!! Sometimes I struggle getting it paid, as long as you have medical necessity you should be okay, but may have to submit chart notes. 96372 is for intramuscular injections.
