I'm really kind of new to dental billing and I am not quite sure what to send on a code that is by report. Are there any special rules when billing D7971 -excision of salivary gland, by report? Can you help me with this?

By report means you must send in a dictated report from the dentist on the procedure and how it was preformed, along with the claim submission.
