This code is for each additional bursa, joint, ganglion or tendon sheath injection or aspiration, following an initial service (e.g., G370), up to a maximum of 5 such additional services. This service is not eligible for payment when rendered in conjunction with a surgical procedure involving the same site or area. Only one of G370, G371, G328 and G329 is eligible for payment for the same bursa, joint or complex joint. Aspiration and/or injection of the olecranon bursa is only eligible for payment as G370/G371. G328/G329 are not eligible for payment solely for injection of complex joint. G370, G371, G328, G329 are uninsured services for injection of intra-articular viscosupplementation agents.

All insured services must be documented in appropriate records that establish: 1. an insured service was provided; 2. the service for which the account is submitted is the service that was rendered; and 3. the service was medically necessary.
