Ask the Coder (542)

If your talking about alveoloplasy it’s D7310

Ada code for section bridge?

D9999 is an unspecified Oral Surgery procedure, in this case even though the dentist was not the person to do the extraction, but he did do the removal of the stitches. I believe even if it’s not billed code d7912, it is the proper code for the procedure the patient had.

Need more information. One is a crown code and one is a space maintainer. You always bill for what you do so I’m not sure what you are asking?

The D0140 should only have been sent by the GP, If it was certain the patient needed to RCT. The endo coding for it is not neccassary unless they had to diagnosis if the patient really needed a RCT. But the GP sending the D0140 again at the crown appointment is absolutely unnecessary. Most insurances (more)
