The title on your post just clicked: CPT 11100 is for reporting a skin biopsy, not the removal of skin tags, which would be 11200. The destruction of actinic keratosis should be reported using code 17000/17003/17004, and ALL other benign skin lesion destructions (warts, SK's etc) are reported with 17110/17111.
For a claim I billed CPT 99204, 90715 and 17110 on the same service date, and United only paid for 90715 and 17110 and stating that 99204 is included as part of the global service, and this charge is not eligible for separate reimbusement. I called United Healthcare and they told me to bill with a code stating that 99204 is a separate service.
Physicians providing services in their offices or in some freestanding sleep centers bill for the global service - both the professional work (interpretation) and the technical component - using the appropriate CPT code, such as 95810, without a modifier.
