Anyone know if there is documentation that states HCPCS S2068 requires an assistant surgeon? I have coded this procedure for quite a few case for different insurance cases and they have always paid for an assistant. United Healthcare says the procedure does not require an assistant. Any help on documentation would be greatly appreciated.
