Good afternoon,
Hello everyone, can someone please explain to me if I am understanding the coding correctly, I am currently helping a Pain Management provider with his billing and coding, with what I had read for the paravertebral facet joint injections at two levels bilaterally (e.g., L1-L2 and L2-L3), we code 64493 with Modifier 50 and 64494, 64494. I have appended modifier 59 on the second 64494 because it was the only code getting denied. I need advice if I am missing a step in how these codes should be billed for?
