We have patients that come into the hospital due to issue where they can’t have the restorative procedures done without anesthesia. My question is, under anesthesia, if provider performs radiographic images and bitewings, can it be coded with a restorative procedure(s)? For example: D2930, D7140 with D0220 and D0272. Should the D0220 and D0272 not be coded? Thank you for your assistance.
