Can anyone give me some suggestion on this issue..

Michele:
It is not possible to answer your question simply based on the information provided.  But I would suggest that you look for an NCD/LCD for codes 64635 and 64636.

Error shows : This service/report cannot be billed separately.Procedure code incidental to primary procedure. Based on LCD dx code M47.817 is active. So which code needs to be corrected.
 

kristin:
Check the NCCI/CCI edits for the codes, and it will tell you which code needs to be corrected.
