Hello. We are helping with MFM billing and I have a question on an ultrasound.
Patient was seen by primary OB and routine scan ordered. During the ultrasound the MFM discovers fetal growth is 98% percentile for gestational age.
I know 76811 is for high risk and I was given some codes as examples but LGA wasn't included. Is that considered a high risk diagnosis and we can bill 76811? All of the required elements were peformed for 76811.
Thank you!
