23 Miss. Code. R. 204-2.5
Current through December 10, 2024
Medicaid does not cover for the surgical removal of residual tooth roots with an extraction separately. The appropriate code for surgical removal of residual tooth roots (cutting procedures) must be used to bill the surgical removal of residual roots when a tooth has been broken off by natural means or when the beneficiary seeks follow-up care from a practitioner other than the dentist or oral surgeon who performed the original extraction.
