We have a doc in our ER who likes to treat patients w/severe dental pain an injection of lidocaine and bupivacaine given directly into the gum. Would this be coded and if so, would the code be the standard injection code of 96372? If not 96372, would anyone know which code to use? :eek:
All replies are appreciated.
Thanks!!
