When coding for three skin biopsies performed at the same visit, you would typically use the appropriate CPT codes for each biopsy based on the type of biopsy performed and the size of the lesions. If the biopsies are of different lesions, you would report each biopsy individually. However, if the biopsies are performed on the same lesion, you would use the appropriate CPT code for the biopsy and append a modifier (like -59) to indicate that separate sites were involved. Always refer to the most current coding guidelines and payer-specific rules for accurate reporting.
