I have a claim with a denial for 29823 (debridement) to 29824 per CCI. My understanding is that if the procedure is performed in another region (glenohumeral vs AC) it is billable. My confusion comes in when there's debridement performed in all 3 regions. Can I bill for the region that doesn't have an edit or since it's done in all 3 I can't?
For example, I have the following:
glenohumeral:
29823-59
29828-51
29825 (bundled not billing)
23700 (bundled not billing)
subacromial:
29826-51
29823 (bundled not billing)
AC:
29824-51
29827
29823 (bundled not billing)
Can I bill for the debridement (29823) in the glenohumeral joint?
