Hello,
When you bill out codes 99151-99157, you enter this on the professional claim of the provider who performed the service...correct? Lets say, it was during a ESI 62323 and the MD that did the injection, and they had a RN that was administrating the moderate sedation service. We would bill code 99152 (pt was over 5) along with 62323 on the MDs claim form. When you bill out codes 99151-99157, are you required to have the time on the claim form as you are required to have the time listed with codes 00100 - 01999? I would think not, since it is a code that is not paid by time but just by the fee schedule. Thank you!
