    Hi! We are trying to help a patient get a pre cert for a CBCT (dental code D0367) for her medical office, but need the ICD 10 code… Thank you so much!

    Hi Guest, D0367 – Cone beam CT capture with interpretation with field of view of both jaws, with or without cranium There is actually not currently a specific CPT code for CBCT……the closest CPT code is: 70486 – Computed tomography, maxillofacial area; without contrast material. Many offices have been using this for some time for CBCT, however, some medical insurers are auditing that code when used for CBCT because the description does not specify “cone beam”. So, “76497 – Unlisted computed tomography procedure (eg, diagnostic, interventional)” is a good CPT code to use, or, many medical insurers will process the “D” codes for procedures when there is not a specific CPT code available. Here is a link to the full policy: https://www.healthpartne…teria/cone-beam-scan.htm Hope this helps!
