Hi mcquinn9911!
Great questions.
On the 70335 code, you're just one number off! (70335 is not a valid code for anything actually!). The code I think you're looking for:
70330 - Radiologic examination, temporomandibular joint, open and closed mouth; bilateral
Some other x-ray codes:
70320 - Radiologic examination, teeth; complete, full mouth
70350 - Cephalogram, orthodontic
70355 - Orthopantogram (eg, panoramic x-ray)
As for the qualifier for box 14, this field is usually left blank for sleep and TMD treatment claims. However, if you are going to fill out a date in this field, there are 2 applicable qualifiers for this field:
431 - Onset of Current Symptoms or Illness
484 - Last Menstrual Period
Obviously you will want to use the qualifier 431 to indicate the date completed in the onset of the current symptoms or illness! :)
Hope this helps.
