What insurance carrier?  It may vary by plan.

I'm not sure about Anthem but with Medicare you will want to look for the LCD for both 92225 & 92250.  The LCD will list what ICD codes are billable for those procedure codes.  Go to your MAC website and go to the LCD section.  Do a search for '92225' and '92250' and you should be able to find them.  Our LCD for NY is:  http://www.mediquant.com/policy/L33567_20141001.pdf
