Fiducial Markers and Biopsies

Date: Dec 24, 2013

Question:

I had previously submitted the question, if a biopsy and a fiducial placement were performed at the same encounter, could they both be billed. You answered that they COULD both be billed. My compliance department wants to make certain they can both be billed if the biopsy and fiducial marker placement are performed from the same access point with the same needle.
