Hello fellow coders!
I work in abortion care so naturally, we bill an abortion to check the gestational age with 76815 or 76817.
Some of our providers are also doing intraoperative ultrasounds (76998) and then another ultrasound (76857) to be sure the uterus is empty.
This seems excessive to me. Where can I find documentation regarding which/how many ultrasounds I can bill during a procedure?
Thank you in advance!
