Can you bill for D9223 if less than 15 minutes additional sedation was completed? For example, if 20 minutes of sedation was done can you bill both D9222 and D9223? Thanks.

Hello! D9222 and D9223 are billed specifically in 15 minute increments, so if it is under 30 minutes, it is not recommended to bill for both D9222 and D9223 (total of 30 minutes) if only 20 minutes of sedation were performed.
