A chiropractor, with the suggestion from a colleague, has decided to use CPT Code 29220. It is a strapping code used for kinesiotaping. Claim scrubbing software kicks it out as an invalid code. I looked up the code in the cpt 2009 standard edition and it looks valid to me. Are there some updates on this code I am missing? Does anyone have experience with this code?
