The dx code is unspecified which could be the reason, also DOS for this code must be prior to 10/01/15.

Maybe the carrier has a policy preventing the payment, other than that I don't see why it was denied. The diagnosis is cross walked with the procedure, unless the procedure was billed with a column 2. Also, I agree with Debra that the DOS for the code should be prior to 10/1/2015 due to ICD-10 being implemented.

One example is this cannot be billed with therapy on the same day as the eval
