A1 trigger release and flexor tenolysis same digit

Posted on by
My doctor has performed right tumb A1 trigger release and right thumb flexor tenolysis. He wants to bill 26442 (Tenolysis, flexor tendon; palm AND finger, each tendon) and 26055 (Tendon sheath incision eg, for trigger finger).

Can these codes be billed on the same finger? The diagnoses are: Right thumb trigger thumb and right thumb flexor synovitis.

Thank you.

9 Digit Mandated Service Code for Pennsylvania

Posted on by
Hello! I’m looking for assistance locating a 9 digit mandated service code for Pennsylvania. I work at an inpatient acute psychiatric center. We are trying to submit a w/c claim on a UB and the carrier is denying requesting an itemized statement this is service code. The only thing I have been able to find out is that all digits are numbers. Any help would be greatly appreciate!

Thanks!

4 Digit DRG?

Posted on by
Hi all, I’m reviewing a UB-04 that’s already been coded and the DRG (Box 71 PPS Code) is 7914. Aren’t all DRGs only 3 digits? I’m new to coding so maybe there are other uses for this box I’m not aware of.

A little enlightenment would be so appreciated!

Oh, other pertinent information:
1) Inpatient bill
2) Payer is Medicaid
3) Date of service was early 2016, so v34 I think
3) …anything else that would be helpful?

Thank you!

Mark
