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.

Can I bill D2930 and D1510 separately?

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?

We use digital scan rather than conventional PVS and I'd like to know if I can now charge for 3-D dental surface scan -direct when scanning for a porcelain/ceramic crown fabrication? I will be posting D2740 on delivery date of crown.

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)

Can you bill a pro on one day of service for the initial visit and then ask the patient back for an SRP and bill out SRP on another day of service? Also, is there any restriction on time on when to bring the patient back for SRP after the apro? An established patient came (more)
