We have new patient who is coming to us for the purpose of having nutropin injected into ankle joint. Patient has been getting these in past from different doc out of state....(not even going to touch how doc out of state billed)
the med is fda approved..but not for the purposes we will be injecting, and patient is providing the meds....can we bill the 20605 to insurance company even though the "reason" we are injecting is not fda indicated? We will not be billing the med as patient is providing.
Any one have any experience with this kind of thing?
