Hi -

I work for a Dermatology Practice. Our Mohs surgeon performed Mohs on a patient's ear. The surgery had a total of 8 stages.
I billed 17311 at 1 unit
Then 17312 at 7 units

I'm pretty sure only 6 units are allowed for 17312, but how do I account for the 8th stage on the claim?

Please help! Thank you!!
