CDT 9987 reports a cancelled appointment. The CDT description does not indicate whether or not the procedure has been cancelled by the provider or patient. If you are not using the code to charge a fee for cancelled appointments, then it would be appropriate. Of course the notes should show why the appointment was cancelled. (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

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.
