I received a procedure note from my physician for a patient Medicare and when I go through the CCI edit it is giving me a error message : Standards of medical/surgical practice. I have no idea what this means.
This is the procedure
trigger point injection : right shoulder area, thoracic and lumbar spine-sternocieidomastoid, trapezius, lattisimus dorsii, paraspinal muscles under ultrasound guidance
Scar injection
ultrasound guided right shoulder injection
dx code 715.91
dx code 729.1
dx code 709.2
Per my physician these are all seperate procedures, Im confused as how to code this.
Please help!!!!
