Question about NCS billing and counting nerves.
My typical upper extremity NCS study:
Sensory + Motor Median | Sensory + Motor Ulnar | Sensory Radial = 5-6 nerves billing
I've started doing some more median/ulnar and median/radial comparison studies - do you/would you guys count that as a separate nerve study or do they fall under the sensory studies of median/ulnar/radial and still stay in the 5-6 nerve billing category? I've seen conflicting answers (and most are 4+ years old) on various billing chats.
Thanks.
