Hello,

The patient was being seen for left knee and indicated that he was having a lot of pain into the left leg from the inguinal region into the SI joint and down the left leg and into the thigh.

I have a report that reads that the Patient had an injection into the left SI region, 80 mg of Depo Medrol using aseptic technigue and they tolerated it well.

How would I code the injection, what I am reading for this kind of injection you have to use image guidance (fluoroscopy/CT) for the injection and that 20610 is not appropriate. Or do I need to query the doctor?

Any suggestion is greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
LLR
