Montana rates for HCPCS 64505

Numbing medicine is delivered to a small cluster of nerves that sits deep behind the nose and carries sensation from the face, sinuses and part of the head. Reaching that cluster quiets the pain signals traveling through it. It is used for certain severe headaches and facial pain conditions, both to confirm where the pain is coming from and to relieve it.
