What you do for one you must do for all...it is best to check with each individual carrier as to your contractual obligation prior to running any kind of specials.

This question is very vague, if you are performing a periodontal scaling and root planning the appropriate code will depend on how many teeth exist in the quadrant. If there are four or more teeth in the upper right quadrant you will bill D4341 if there are one to three teeth in the upper right (more)

It varies upon carrier, the consensus is this should be billed on the seat date.

The ruling from CMS is any provider whose scope of practice permits may assign a diagnosis code, (DDS, DMD, MD, Resident) it does not specifically state as to Hygiene. The common consensus is a hygienist may assign a diagnosis code however, it must be approved/reviewed by the attending/supervising provider.
