When I inject a neuroma on both feet why does the insurance deny 64455-RT and 64455-LT-59?

for injections on neuromas do you need to add foot modifiers?
The denial occurs because CPT 64455 has a MUE of 1. This means it can only be billed once per day, BUT it has a bilateral indicator. The proper billing for bilateral neuroma injections is: 64455-50 x 1 UNIT (Don't forget to double your fee).
