Radiology Question for the Week of August 18, 2025
Can extremity angiography codes 75710 and 75716 be assigned for selective and non-selective imaging?
Can extremity angiography codes 75710 and 75716 be assigned for selective and non-selective imaging?
Question: How much needs to be imaged and described in the report in order to report extremity angiography codes? Answer:
How do we code and bill for adenosine when we do not use the entire vial on a Medicare patient? Also, does this policy apply to radiopharmaceuticals or for all single-use administered drugs and diagnostic or therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals?
We are imaging for sarcoidosis. Can you tell us which codes to report?
Can code 78802 be reported when performing imaging using bone agents for inflammatory disease?
Can we report 78802 with 78830 if a single whole-body study and a single area SPECT or SPECT/CT are performed on the same date of service?
Are there any code edits that we should be aware of when applying LT and RT modifiers?
We are still confused about when to use or if to use the LT or RT modifier. Do you have a formula that we could apply based on a scenario?
Do you have any additional guidelines for modifiers LT and RT?
When would we report modifiers LT and RT?
Do you have any coding examples for modifier GG?
What modifiers should be submitted to ensure both a screening and diagnostic mammogram performed on the same date of service are reimbursed, and how do they help bypass NCCI edits?
