92923 for both upper and lower extremity doppler

Date: Jun 20, 2022

Question:

How should complete non-invasive Doppler be coded with three or more levels studied for both upper and lower extremities during the same encounter? From what I've read it would be 92923 and 92923-59, but we've received a denial from Medicare, so I wanted to double check.
