Wiki nail biopsy

[solocoder]

Can nail biopsy 11755 and nail removal 11750 be billed at the same time for the same nail?
Has anyone had success or denials billing both of these together?

The following code pairs generally cannot be reported together. Use the Column 1 code.
(If Modifier Indicator=1, there may be occasions where both codes are payable, see NCCI Chapter I Section E .)
