Hi Guest! D0140 – limited oral evaluation – problem focused can be crosscoded to: 99202 – level 2 new patient Evaluation & Management (office visit) or 99212 – level 2 established patient Evaluation & Management (office visit) D2330 – resin-based composite – one surface, anterior The code listed above do not have direct crosscodes we are aware of – so you can either bill the “D” code on the medical claim (many insurers these days will process “D” codes when they are medically necessary services), or you can use the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure: 41899 – Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures Hope this helps!
Hi Guest! D9248 – non-intravenous conscious sedation For patients 5+ years old, can be cross coded to: 99152 Moderate sedation services provided by the same physician or other qualified health care professional performing the diagnostic or therapeutic service that the sedation supports, requiring the presence of an independent trained observer to assist in the monitoring of the patient’s level of consciousness and physiological status; initial 15 minutes of intraservice time, patient age 5 years or older 99153 Moderate sedation services provided by the same physician or other qualified health care professional performing the diagnostic or therapeutic service that the sedation supports, requiring the presence of an independent trained observer to assist in the monitoring of the patient’s level of consciousness and physiological status; each additional 15 minutes intraservice time (list separately in addition to code for primary service) D0220 – intraoral – periapical first radiographic image can be cross coded to: 70300 – Radiologic examination, teeth; single view D0230 – intraoral – periapical each additional radiographic image Can be cross coded to: 70310 – Radiologic examination, teeth; partial examination, less than full mouth D0150 – comprehensive oral evaluation – new or established patient can be crosscoded to: 99202 (new paitnet level 2) or 99212 (established patient level 2) D7230 – Removal of impacted tooth – partially bony There is actually not a direct crosscode for extractions, so typically you can either bill the “D” code on the medical claim (many insurers these days will process “D” codes when they are medically necessary services), or use the CPT code 41899 (Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures) with a narrative description. Tip: you can use the “ZZ” qualifier with a short narrative right on the line item in the supplemental information area! D7999 – unspecified oral surgery procedure, by report The crosscode for this will depend on what type of oral surgery procedure this code is being used to represent. IF there is not a crosscode available for the service, you would like be looking at 41899 for one as well. But if you have any details about what service this code was being used to represent, I”d be happy to look into coding option for you. Hope this helps!
Hi Guest! D2950 – core buildup, including any pins when required D2962 – labial veneer (porcelain laminate) – laboratory The codes listed above do not have direct crosscodes we are aware of, so you can either bill the “D” code on the medical claim (many insurers these days will process “D” codes when they are medically necessary services), or you can use the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure: 41899 – Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures You will also need diagnosis codes to represent the trauma to your teeth from the fall and the fall itself. It is best to confirm these codes with your provider to be sure they are accurate. For example, for fractured teeth due to trauma: S02.5XXA – Fracture of tooth (traumatic), initial encounter for closed fracture S02.5XXB – Fracture of tooth (traumatic), initial encounter for open fracture As for the fall, these diagnostic codes get very specific on how you fell, where you fell, and it you hit anything else during the fall. For example: W01.0XXA – Fall on same level from slipping, tripping and stumbling without subsequent striking against object, initial encounter W01.198A – Fall on same level from slipping, tripping and stumbling with subsequent striking against other object, initial encounter W03.XXXA – Other fall on same level due to collision with another person, initial encounter If you fall does not fit the codes above, let me know some additional details and i can offer you some coding options. Hope this helps!
