Can I Bill for Fluoroscopy?

Question:

I did a left intraarticular steroid injection in the ASC. I used fluoroscopic guidance. Can I report the Fluoro separately or is it included in the procedure code I used 20610?

Answer:

Yes, you can report fluoroscopic guidance with CPT code 20610. In the ASC make sure you report 77002-26. Modifier 26 is required when you perform guidance in the hospital or ASC when the equipment is owned by the facility.
