MUE

Date: Dec 6, 2021

Question:

When billing for an intracranial embo, I use 61624, 75894, and 75898 x 2. Often the doctor does more than 2 follow angiograms but I read that the MUE is 2 per day for this. Another coder disagrees with me and says I should be billing for all of the follow up angiograms done. It doesn't make sense to me to bill for more than the 2 that are allowed, but maybe I am wrong. What do you advise?

Thank you.
