Need to see if I was correct in billing these procedures together
Dx: Lateral epicondylitis with common extensor tendon tear
Carpal Tunnel
Cubital Tunnel
Submitted CPT 24341 for repair of tendon, elbow
64718 Ulnar nerve release at elbow
64721 Carpal Tunnel Release median nerve
Insurance is denying 64718 and 64721 as inclusive to the tendon repair of 24341
Am I correct in my billing , or do I have an appeal. I think I do, but would like some other coders opinions.
Thank you,
Carol
