I need help. I am currently a medicaid rep, due to trouble finding a coding position. But we are having trouble with the CRNA coding.
this is what we keep getting.
00740 ANESTHESIA FOR UPPER GASTROIN - denial code 1887 (COMBINE CHARGES AND REBILL USING MAJOR ANESTHESIA CODE. INDICATE TOTAL TIME (UNITS) IN COLUMN G. FILE ADJUSMENT OF PREVIOUSLY PAID CLAIM IF NECESSARY.
00810 ANESTHESIA FOR LOWER INTESTIN - denial code 1888 (ONE ANESTHESIA PROCEDURE ALLOWED PER SAME DATE OF SERVICE
This two codes are together for the same patient. Do we combine units and cost into one of the two codes? or do we just adjust off one and only bill for one?
