Hi rwcottrell!

The diagnosis code you will want to provide to the insurer will be whatever condition the scan are being taken for - i.e. if you are fabricating an oral appliance for obstructive sleep apnea, the diagnosis code you would provide is 327.23.

As for your pre-auth for 76376, Tracy will contact you to get that clarified!
