I have been searching for medical procedure code for D3425. Not sure if I can use the CDT code or if it converts to a medical code but I'm driving myself crazy!

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Hi guest!

D3425 - apicoectomy/periradicular surgery – molar (first root)

The code listed above does not have a direct crosscode we are aware of, so you can either bill the "D" code on the medical claim (many insurers these days will process "D" codes when they are medically necessary services), or you can try the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure:
41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures

Hope this helps, have a great day!
