Medicare has denied our recent codes for CPT 20550 as well as CPT 64455, for plantar fascia injections and neuroma injections, stating that these are “not medically necessary.” We are having the patient sign ABNs for these so that we can collect payment, however, these codes have been covered in the past. The diagnosis codes being used include M77.51, M77.52 for CPT 20550 as well as G67.61 and G57.62 to code for neuromas. Are we doing something wrong? My biller explained to me that because I am not an anesthesiologist, Medicare is denying the codes.
