I am needing to bill D9420 to medical insurance and they want a medical code, they can not give me the information I need. Can you help? Thank you!

Hi guest!

D9420 - hospital or ambulatory surgical center call
Can be cross coded to:
99221 - hospital care, new, level 1
99222 - hospital care, new, level 2
99223 - hospital care, new, level 3
99231 - hospital - subseq., level 1
99232 - hospital - subseq., level 2
99233 - hospital - subseq., level 3

Hope this helps, have a great day!

Does this apply to outpatient surgery as well?

Thank you!
