NCCI Edit 36226 & 69990; 2 different physicians, 2 different OP sessions, same day
Our neurosurgeon performed a crainotomy for a resection of an AVM 61597, 61702 & 69990.
The neuroendovascular IR performed a post op cerebral angiogram 36222 & 36226.
Both procedures were performed on the same day by different physicians within the same group (neurosurgery & neuroendovascular).
We are hitting an edit because the 69990 Microscope can't be billed with the 36222 nor 36226.
Mind you these are 2 different procedures at different operative sessions on the same day billed independently of each other.
Can we dispute this edit?
