My Interventional Pain Management Doctor performed an Sacrotuberous ligament injection. I have been trying to find a code for this but I can not find it listed in the CPT book nor can I find anything online regarding the coding for this type of procedure. If you can help in anyway with this coding I would really appreciate it! Thank you!

I am not 100% sure, but what about 27096? Seems to me the sacrotuberous ligament is very close the the sacroiliac joint. Either that 20610 maybe?

Wouldn't this be 20550, since what is being injected is being described as a ligament. There is no description of imaged-guided (fluoroscopy or CT) sacroilliac joint injection (27096). Nor is there a major joint injection (shoulder, hip, Knee) being described as being performed.
