Wiki How to code for a therapeutic contact lens

[kcamelio]

Previously I was able to bill a therapeutic contact lens out with 92071. That code has been deleted. Any help on how to code a bandage contact lens now?
Thank you.

I use the 92071 for the bandage contact lens for corneal abrasions and things like that and the 92072 for anything with Keratoconus.

CPT code 92071 hasn't been deleted. Make sure you use modifier 52 if its only for one eye.
