Hello, I'm new to neurosurgery and I was asked to find out about a denial that our inpatient/procedure coder received from Medicare. One of our surgeons placed an arterial line. We billed a 36620 with our neurosurgery dx codes. It was denied due to missing HCPCs. Can neurosurgeons bill for this service? Do we need to use the anesthesia modifiers? Are there special dx that we need to use?

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all!
