Q: Our ophthalmologists are using mitomycin after surgery for many of their patients. Do we need to report a HCPCS code for this since it gets packaged into the surgery procedure? It seems like a lot of effort for no money.
Q: One of our physicians is talking about a new biological called Inflectra that he is interested in using. Do you have any information on how this is handled under the OPPS?
Q: We are struggling with how to report the functional status codes that are required when a physical therapist provides therapy services post-operatively. We have a process for doing that for our “regular” therapy patients, but are struggling with how to implement this for the outpatient surgeries.
