Diagnostic radiology

About 70330: Bilateral temporomandibular joint radiographs

Bilateral temporomandibular joint radiographs assess jaw-joint motion and bony alignment, typically for pain, clicking, restricted movement, or suspected structural abnormality.

70330 covers plain-film imaging of both temporomandibular joints (TMJs) with the jaw positioned open and closed, allowing comparison of joint movement and bony relationships. It is commonly ordered for persistent preauricular jaw pain, clicking, or limited opening when a clinician needs radiographic assessment of the joints. Dental practices, oral and maxillofacial clinics, and hospital or freestanding imaging departments may obtain the study; a radiologist or other qualified interpreting practitioner reviews the images and reports the findings.

Report 70330 for the bilateral open- and closed-mouth TMJ examination, rather than coding each side as a separate unilateral study. The order and report should identify the symptoms or suspected joint problem, document that both joints and the requested mouth positions were imaged, and include an interpretation. CMS treats this as a diagnostic test with separately priced professional and technical components: use modifier 26 for interpretation, TC for equipment and staff, or neither for the global service. CMS pricing already accounts for both sides, so modifier 50 does not increase payment.

CMS billing rules for 70330

Professional and technical components
Diagnostic test with a professional component (modifier 26, interpretation) and a technical component (modifier TC, equipment and staff); billing without a modifier is the global service.
Bilateral procedures
The code is already priced as bilateral; modifier 50 does not increase payment.

70330 billing questions

When should 70330 be selected instead of 70328?

Use 70330 for the bilateral TMJ radiographic examination. Code 70328 describes a unilateral examination.

Does 70330 include imaging both joints?

Yes. It represents a bilateral TMJ examination with the mouth open and closed; it is not reported as separate right- and left-side services.

How are the professional and technical portions billed?

Report modifier 26 for the interpretation and TC for the equipment and staff portion. Billing without either modifier represents the global service.

Should modifier 50 be appended?

CMS pricing for 70330 already accounts for both sides, and modifier 50 does not increase payment.

What documentation supports reporting 70330?

Document the jaw-joint symptoms or suspected problem, imaging of both TMJs in open and closed positions, and the interpreting practitioner's findings.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
