Ommaya Reservoir

Pt had, in office, an injection of Methotrexate 12mg via Ommaya Reservoir. And prior to the injection, an aspiration of CFS.

What codes would I use?

J9250x3

96542

61070-59

Is that correct? Not sure if I am to use both 96542 and 61070 or just one.

96542 states chemo injection and 61070 states aspiration or injection.

I was told to use 96450 but that states requiring and including spinal puncture. no such procedure was done. Just an aspiration.

Thank you,

Lydia
