Ask Dr. Z

"Pre-procedural planning was discussed in detail with the patient prior to initiation of the localization and injection procedure. No pertinent allergies are reported. Lesion localization was performed following procedural timeout with CT scanning of the patient in the prone posistion. 1% lidocaine was infiltrated into the subcutaneous tissues following skin cleansing with Betadine x3. A 22 gauge spinal needle guiding needle was advanced into the left S1 neuroforamen. Extraluminal extra thecal placement was confirmed with a small amount of Isovue 200 A 1:1 solution of 0.75 percent Marcaine, and Celestone solution was then administered. No procedural complications were encountered."  I was not sure if this would still be reported with code 27096...or possibly 62319/64483?
