Hello, Can you convert these CDT codes to CPT codes and confirm for the ones where I do have the translation, If it is correct.
D2740 D2950 D4266 (CPT Code = 41870) D6010 (CPT Code = 21248) D6057 (CPT Code Unlisted = 41899) D7210 D7953 D9944
I had dental trauma from an accident, My dental office stated that they can not submit to medical insurance because they do not have that capability since we are a general dentist.
However, can’t they just convert the codes and submit?

Hi Tabitha!
D6114 - Implant/abutment supported fixed denture for edentulous arch - maxillary D6058 - abutment supported porcelain/ceramic crown D6057 - custom fabricated abutment – includes placement D6055 - connecting bar – implant supported or abutment supported D6115 - Implant/abutment supported fixed denture for edentulous arch - mandibular
There are not a direct crosscodes we are aware of for these procedures, so you can either: - use the "D" code on the pre-authorization request/medical claim (many insurers these days will process "D" codes when they are medically necessary services), or - you can use the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure: 41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures
Hope this helps!

Hi Mollie!
D9248 - non-intravenous conscious sedation For patients 5+ years old, can be cross coded to: 99152 Moderate sedation services provided by the same physician or other qualified health care professional performing the diagnostic or therapeutic service that the sedation supports, requiring the presence of an independent trained observer to assist in the monitoring of the patient’s level of consciousness and physiological status; initial 15 minutes of intraservice time, patient age 5 years or older 99153 Moderate sedation services provided by the same physician or other qualified health care professional performing the diagnostic or therapeutic service that the sedation supports, requiring the presence of an independent trained observer to assist in the monitoring of the patient’s level of consciousness and physiological status; each additional 15 minutes intraservice time (list separately in addition to code for primary service)
D7240 - Removal of impacted tooth - completely bony
As for the CPT code for extractions, there is actually not direct crosscode, 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 use one of the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure: 41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures
Hope this helps!
