Greetings all: One of my pain docs has dictated a report stating he performed a neuroplasty and lysis of epidural adhesions. When I read the body of the report, he makes no mention of the lysis, but only talks about injection hypertonic saline at each joint.
Should this be coded as 62264 or should I go with 62319? The procedure was performed using a catheter, but again no mention of lysis of adhesions.
I welcome any and all responses.
