I need help!!
I have a doctor who does real time ultrasound injections. When we bill these out we use 76942 for the ultrasound and 20610 for the injection. Medicare has recently decided to deny 76942 charges for bilateral procedures. They'll pay both 20610's but not the 76942's. We've tried sending them out using 2 units, using RT and LT modifiers, with modifier 59 and they just keep getting rejected. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what we can do?
Thanks in advance for your help.
