The patient's medical record must contain documentation that fully supports the medical necessity for the visual fields testing in accordance with the applicable LCD.
Documentation should include relevant medical history, a physical examination, and results of pertinent diagnostic tests or procedures supporting the need for visual fields testing.
The diagnosis code(s) reported on the claim must best describe the patient's condition for which the visual fields testing was performed.
Refer to NCCI and OPPS requirements prior to billing Medicare to ensure coding compliance and to determine any bundling or packaging edits.

Coverage for thoracic aortography and carotid, vertebral, and subclavian angiography is determined by Local Coverage Determination L35035; services are covered when reasonable and necessary per that LCD.
Bill HCPCS code G0278 for femoral or iliac angiography performed at the time of coronary angiography.
Aortography and peripheral angiography are covered when reasonable and necessary per Local Coverage Determination L36767 and when documentation supports the selected ICD-10-CM diagnosis and medical necessity.
Monitored Anesthesia Care (MAC) is medically necessary when the patient has one or more documented diagnoses listed as supporting medical necessity (e.g., F91.9, G97.81, T81.9XXA, T88.8XXA, F79) and the diagnosis is matched to the anesthesia/CPT/HCPCS procedure performed.
Use G9 anesthesia modifier to indicate need for MAC due to a history of severe or advanced cardiopulmonary disease when the proceduralist determines additional monitoring is required.
Use G8 anesthesia modifier for certain deep, complex, complicated, or markedly invasive surgical procedures when applied to anesthesia codes 00100, 00300, 00400, 00160, 00532, or 00920.
