Question:
Can we bill the 92242 for the indocyanine green video angiography we do with the pterional craniotomy clipping of an aneurysm? Can I bill for the injection using 15860? We do this to confirm patency of all branch vessels.
Answer:
No, this service is included in the craniotomy for aneurysm clipping code and not separately reported.
