I bill for echo's frequently and as of the first of the year, you cannot bill those three codes together. If you are doing a complete echo with the spectral doppler and color doppler you need to use the code 93306. That is the new code this year for a complete echo. You can bill the 93307 if you do not include the spectral or color dopplers.
I bill with both types of dx's. If the report comes back and it's a fairly normal echo, then I will bill with the symptoms. If it comes back with a definitive dx then I use that instead.
I hope this helps you.
