I know medicaid covers CPT 65730 but not the V2785...but our doctor is insisting that efective Jan 1, 2009, Medicare approved a procedure that bundles both and which reimbursement is higher and that it should also apply to Medicaid. I haven't heard nor read anything regarding this...any feedback on this!!:confused:
 
unfortunately, just because Medicare may have done this does not mean that Medicaid does things the same way. Medicare is Federal, Medicaid is State. Two seperate worlds.
 
I agree, that it is what I told the doc, but he seems not to understand...thanks...now I have backup!
 
ok, what it the patient pays for for the corneal transplant itself, the tissue that is, can we still bill for the procedure, not the tissue ?
