Billing for CPT codes 60500 (parathyroidectomy) and 60210 (thyroidectomy, total or near-total) together may be permissible if the procedures are performed for distinct reasons and the documentation supports medical necessity for both. However, it's essential to review payer policies, as some insurers may have specific guidelines regarding bundling or unbundling these codes. Always ensure that proper modifiers are used to indicate that the services are separate. Consulting the latest coding guidelines or a billing specialist is advisable for accurate billing practices.
