A lot of of our Dr's will use high end injectables ie:Synvisc, Hyalgan, Orthovisc or Euflexxa and the rule of thumb at our practice is that if Dr. discussed the use of injections at a prior visit within 3 months of the injections, then we do not assign an E&M code. However if the Dr. injects a steroid ie:Kenalog, Celestone, Depo Medrol then we do assign an E&M. Is this a correct pratice? What do you do in your practice regarding E&M's and injections? Thank you for your advice!
