I did some research on the J1010 code and the denials of payment I have been seeing at 160 units from multiple insurances at the practice I work at. I am seeing responses from some other billers that they have been getting denials also if they send the J1010 for 160 units. The CMS has only approved 120 units per day. A few billers from other practices are saying they have started to bill for 120 units and bill for 40 extra units and they are not receiving payments.
My question is would entering it at two 80 unit line items works to see payment? What are ya'll doing to get payments for J1010?
 
The MUE is 120 for J1010, but I had a provider who did bilateral arthro injections and used 80 in each. I appealed with medical records showing necessity and Medicare paid for it.
