I am trying to clarify if 55250 Vasectomy is always considered to be a medically necessary procedure?
**Per CMS Guidelines that in order for a payment to be made on this procedure it should be documented as an illness or injury and not an elective procedure.
Thank you for your help.
 
Vasectomy is a payable service for sterilization of the male. It is an exception to the rule of illness or injury as per CMS available guidelines.
