ORIGINAL POST
I am guessing that the unlisted spinal procedure code would be the best
choice for coding a custom protective face mask since neither cranial nor
extremity codes would be appropriate. Anyone have any other thoughts or
success invoicing with a different number? Thanks, Randy McFarland, CPO

RESPONSE
I make a number of face masks and that's the code that I use. I only take
assignment from Worker's Comp insurance and insist on written authorization.
All others are on a cash basis.
