Should a 99211 be bill with 46924 when billing Medicaid? Should 99212 be bill with 46900 when billing Medicaid? Is not the office visit bundle or apart of the destruction of the wart?

Shave removal with destruction of benign lesions
The provider documents that the lesion is removed via shave technique, but also is destructed and the lesion is confirmed benign. We are trying to determine if we should bill the shave removal code (113xx) or benign destruction (17110). According to NCCI we cannot bill both the shave removal and destruction codes as they are bundled into the destruction. It seems like it would make more sense to bill for the shave removal than just the destruction.
