CPT 11008: ICD-10 codes that support medical necessity
These ICD-10-CM diagnoses support medical necessity for CPT 11008 under Medicare coverage policies (LCDs, NCDs, and Billing & Coding articles). Billing CPT 11008 with a diagnosis that isn't covered typically denies as CARC 50 — not medically necessary.
National approximation. Coverage varies by MAC and state — confirm against the specific LCD/NCD and article that applies to your jurisdiction and date of service.
