Is there another code to use when the doctor adjusts the bite after delivery or should it relate with another code? Thanks!1answer64views I am new to orthodontic and dental billing. The patient may have a 27-month or 30-month treatment, but our office likes to have the bill paid in 24 months. So the private pay part is divided up, % down and 24 monthly payments. In submitting claims for insurance, I have seen others put in the number of months of treatment remainnig (box 42 J400) accurately as 27 or 30, but then put the code, total case fee, initial banding fee, and something like "24 months to be billed at $____ per month." Is it okay to bill insurance this way?1answer79views I need to find out how to code for 3rd molar extractions on the CMS-1500 claim form.1answer113views what is the best icd 9 code for an amalgam tattoo?1answer147views Filing a medical claim.
