Please help me with the correct cpt code for a spinal duramorph injection for post operative pain. I was thinking 62311 is correct. We just started using this type of post op pain. Thank you.
 
Yup, you've got the right code for lumbar interspace, intrathecal or epidural injection, single shot deal: 62311

Just a note for you & anyone else reading this: Be careful about doing this in conjunction with procedures where the main mode of anesthesia was done via spinal. You can't bill for a post-op spinal injection when the main mode of anesthesia is spinal.
