Is anyone billing Medicare (California or other states) for an ultrasound guided transforaminal injection. We have Category III Code 0228T for a cervical injection. I'm looking for payment and policy information.

Thanks in advance.:o

For the professional side, I believe the category III could have a payment indicator of carrier priced and the Medicare carrier you are billing would price it at the time of processing.
