Would this be something we could bill to insurances and Medicaid patients IF we tell them upfront that they will need to pay for that part of the service? Or, is there an obscure code that we can utilize to collect on behalf of waste fees?

If these two had taken place weeks apart, I think it would be fine. Doing a comprehensive one day and a limited the next day, my question as an auditor was the extraction planned on the D0150 exam and scheduled for the next day? If so, the D0140 I would say is overcharging unless you (more)

Due to limitations within the CDT code structure, the concept of a Professional and technical fee has not gotten the attention it deserves. Unfortunately, anesthesia reimbursements and cases for medically necessary Dentistry, not OMF, are not payable...

We are seeing children under 3 for sometimes 3 appts and then charging out a D0150 . Wondering if we can chg a D0120 for a visit and then a D0150
Anonymous July 1, 2024
You would bill D0145 until the child turns 3 years of age, this code is specific to oral evaluations for under 3. Then bill D0150 at 3 years of age and D0120 every visit after.
