hi,
we did intra-articular injection for MR shoulder arthrogram under CT guidance.
MR shoulder arthrogram charges should be 73222/23350/77012/A9579.
but can I assign CPT 77012 on this report? I'm not sure because CPT 77012 has RS&I.
I thought the RS&I should be documented in detail.
"intra articular injection of gad and saline mixture was performed by dr. the needle was localized under CT guidance. A total of 5cc of gadolinium saline mixture was infused into the glenohumeral joint. the patient tolerated the procedure well without immediate complicaitons."
CPT 77012-CT guidance needle placement(eg,biopsy, aspiration, injection, localization device), radiological supervision and interpretation
expert's opinion please.
