W CODES

Here's an update on the use of some W codes. I put it here so I can reference it in the future. These are proprietary for our clinic only, not generally accepted Medicare codes, as I understand it right now.

W9997 will be used when an OD determines the calculation of IOL for an MD

W9998 will be used for paperwork only

W9999 will be used for actual LASIK pre op eliminating the use of the 76516R

W99601 is used for the actual LASIK screening
