- DME CodingI am confused, when completing Block 31 of a CMS form or electronic equivalent for DMERC, billing a L1902-RT, whose name goes there? Can it be the organization name or does it have to be the provider? It says include degree or credentials in the instructions. So, if someone puts the company name there in block 31 besides block number 32 and 33, isn't that not right?
- Surgical CodingI have heard many people say it is or is not a bunionectomy coding, how do I know how to bill the 1st metatarsal-cuneiform fusion without any metatarsal head surgery? What happens when I do a bump removal of the first metatarsal head besides the arthrodesis proximally?
- Surgical CodingWhen I inject a neuroma on both feet why does the insurance deny 64455-RT and 64455-LT-59?
