CPT 51798 - Denial by Blue cross blue shield
« on: October 31, 2012, 04:51:14 PM »
CPT 51798 is denied by Blue cross as noncovered. Although, when billed with CPT 76775 , 76775 does get paid, but not 51798. I referred to list of dx we can bill 51798 with and I am billing correct dx. Not sure why its denied every single time.
Any pointers?
