Good Morning,
One of the physicians I work for, has recently began performing the MILD (Minimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression) procedure.
I have a question with regards to billing an Epidural Injection (62311) or Epidurography (72275) for his monitoring of this procedure???
Under the description of the Epidural Injection (62311) it states ("for either localization or epidurography")... Therefore, I'm leaning toward 62311...however, the only susbtance injected is contrast and saline.. and the report states "Epidurogram was seen"....
Does anyone have ANY experience with coding this procedure.. at this point...ANY/ ALL help would be appreciated.
Thanks![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
