Wiki implants in an ASC setting

[pochranek]

We are trying to get our implants paid by CMS and are currently using C1713 which is not a recognized code by CMS for ASC setting. My question is - would L8699 or A4649 be appropriate HCPCs codes for implants?

Implants for ASC's

I also work for an ASC, and we use the C1713-GY and get paid. If your implant does not fulfill the C1713, you may want to try the L8699, but DON'T forget the -GY modifier!
