Hello, I have a coder saying that Medicare's "guidelines" say to use J3490 for Marcaine, even though Marcaine is S0020 (which MC doesn't pay for). I know MC's guidelines can make as much sense as any govt agency, but it seems to me that if MC doesn't pay for S0020, using the J code is basically the same as using an unlisted code to get paid for a procedure when there's an existing code that describes the procedure.
Anybody have some experience with this?
Thanks!
