Hip Injection

Question:

I did a left hip intraarticular steroid injection and used fluoroscopic guidance. Can I report the guidance in addition to the procedure?

Answer:

Yes, you would report CPT code 20610 for the hip injection and 77002-26 for the fluoroscopic guidance. Make certain you use Modifier 26 when performing procedure is a facility setting. Modifier 26 is used for the professional component. Do not report 27093 (Injection procedure for hip arthrography) when reporting CPT 20610.
