Biller

kristin:
I meant anatomical location. Not POS location. Meaning were both injections given in the same place on the patient's body.

binal05080:
Yes it was done on the same location.

kristin:
Then my first answer stands. You can't bill an anesthetic block injection to numb the area before you do an aspiration injection, the anesthetic block is bundled into the aspiration.

If, for some reason, the anesthetic block was COMPLETELY unrelated to the aspiration, then and only then can you bill it separately, and you would need a 59 or XS modifier on it.

binal05080:
Thanks a lot . I will let you know as soon as I get reply from my ins.

binal05080:
Everyone thanks a lot for reading my issue and helping me to resolve the same. I did refiled the claim for the cpt 64405 with mod 59 & RT.

Thanks to Kristin for helping me to solve this issue.
