Wiki Knee arthrocentesis (20610) of steroid with manipulation 27570

[Nelson]

Hi all,
Does anyone have any supporting information that states a provider can bill a steroid injection (Medrol, or Corticosteroid) 20610 in addition to a knee manipulation -27570? This injection is not for pain control. It is a steroid.
Thanks in advance. Kathy

Doesn't matter. Any joint injection is going to be part of the MUA. That's the way the edits are set up.
