Hello Forum
Our provider did a drainage of the palmar bursa bilateral hands. We had billed to Medicare using 26025/LT and 26025/RT and Medicare denied both for two many/frequency of services.
Should the claim be billed using 26030 X1 as it indicates multiple bursa? It is a bilateral procedure, different site/different hand.
Thank you
