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

Except that D7550 is removal of sloughed off bone due to infection and blood supply. The RVUs assigned to this for payment do not constitute removal of a simple bone spur.
