I need some coding advice. My provider is billing for a corticosteroid injection for the right sacroiliac joint. What CPT code should be billed for this? The Cpt code 27096 states that it is for an injection for the joint BUT with image guidance. No imaging was done for this. Anyone have any advice?
Thanks!
 
you have to use the trigger point injection 20552 code for SI joint injection. If you look at the coding instructions for 27096 it goes on to state: For the injection procedure without CT or fluoroscopic imaging guidance, see 20552.
