In the following scenario: 76817, Ultrasound, pregnant uterus, real time with image documentation, transvaginal. V28.82 Encounter for screening for risk of pre-term labor. It is important to clearly document in the body of the ultrasound report that a transvaginal approach was used to assess CL. As always, it is strongly recommended that providers contact their local payors to verify the specific coverage in each contract to avoid delays in claim processing for this code/reason.
