Ask Dr. Z

Can you plesae tell me what ultrasounds should be billed with this breast/related area Ultrasound and Ultrasound Guided Biopsy? Our primary confusion lies in the ultrasounds performed at the same time of the breast ultrasound/biopsies. Also, in order to bill the post procedural mammogram is there anything specific required? Examination: Bilateral Breast Ultrasound (76645); Ultrasound of the Right and Left Axillary (76882-RT, 76882-LT), Infraclavicular (?), & Internal Mammary Regions (?); Ultrasound of the Right Supraclavicular Regions (76536?); Ultrasound-Guided Left Breast 3 O'Clock Position Needle (per doctor FNA) Biopsy (10022/76942); Ultrasound-Guided Right Axillary Lymph Node Needle Biopsy (38505); Ultrasound-Guided Right Breast 10 O'Clock Position Needle (per doctor FNA) Biopsy (10022-59); Ultrasound-Guided Right Breast 12 O'Clock Position Core Biopsy (19201) and Clip Placement (19295); and Post-Procedural Right Breast Mammogram (G0206) Any assistance you could provide would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much!
