"A biopsy performed in conjunction with a more extensive nasal/sinus procedure is not separately reportable Revision Date (Medicare): 1/1/2020 V-5 unless the biopsy is examined pathologically prior to the more extensive procedure and the decision to proceed with the more extensive procedure is based on the result of the pathologic examination."
