Benign Skin Lesions and Viral Infectious Lesion Removal

The Benign Skin Lesions and Viral Infectious Lesion Removal policy has been updated to document that if the procedure is cosmetic in nature, the claim should be filed with diagnosis code Z41.1. This will ensure that the claim will be denied as not covered. The change is effective for BlueCHiP for Medicare and commercial products. Please see the full text of this policy by clicking here.
