Can someone help me with filling out a medical claim form for wisdom teeth extractions? My Dr. performed D7220 and D7230's on a patient. Their dental coverage is requiring filing with medical coverage first before dental will pay anything. I believe I have the correct form to use. However, I do not know the CPT, modifier or diagnosis codes to use on the form. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If you are in network and the insurance downgrades the code can we collect from the patient?
I have a patient that has had SRP. He has been on perio maintenance (4910) for a year. If they have improved can they go back to an adult prophy (1110) or do they have to stay at a 4910? I was told once we use 4910 they have to stay with that code.
i was told you should always take only the primary adjustment but was always taught to take the higher amount. which is it?
Should a Dentist charge a separate lab fee for this type of crown
If I send a claim to a primary insurance and they pay a portion and have a contractual adjustment that covers the remaining portion of the balance leaving no patient balance, is it appropriate to send the claim to the patients secondary insurance hoping they’ll pay what the primary adjusted off, or should the claim only be sent to secondary if the patient has a balance?

d0470 diagnostic casts, what code is for the wax up
My dentist referred me to another dentist at another company for procedure D3348. After the procedure, I was billed D9310 in addition to D3348. I personally did not need a consultation and only required D3348. Do I have to pay this invoice and if not, on what basis?
