Can someone please shed some light for me on the new EMG Codes?  We were billing the following and all are being denied?  Not sure where to go or what I need to change.  Can anyone steer me in the right direction?!?!  Thank you for taking the time to assist me!

What is the reason for denial?

Since the EMG codes changed Jan 1st, you have to use codes 95885-95887 whenever an NCV performed with it as in your case.

Your new codes should be
95885 or 95886
95903
95904
95934
A4556

I have attached some documentation that should help you.
