The 2014 breast biopsy codes have bundled the biopsy, clip and guidance. Occasionally we have to take patients to the radiology department, I would normally bill 77031/26 for stereotactic guidance plus the biopsy code. Can I bill 19081/26 (and radiology bill 19081/TC)?
I called American College of Surgeons and they said this is a policy question, and we have to wait until Medicare publishes it's guidlelines to determine if this is modifier 26/TC eligible.
