Hi Guest!
D9223 - deep sedation/general anesthesia — each 15-minute increment can be crosscoded to: 00170 - Anesthesia for intraoral procedures, including biopsy; not otherwise specified 00172 - Anesthesia for intraoral procedures, including biopsy; repair of cleft palate 00174 - Anesthesia for intraoral procedures, including biopsy; excision of retropharyngeal tumor 00176 - Anesthesia for intraoral procedures, including biopsy; radical surgery 01999 - Unlisted anesthesia procedure(s)
D7230 - removal of impacted tooth - partially bony
The code listed above does not have a direct crosscode we are aware of, 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 try the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure: 41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures
Hope this helps!
