Ask a Rev Cycle Expert: Are 77295 and 77280-77290 Bundled?

When we look up the 3-D planning 77295 along with the 77280/77290, we are not seeing a bundled warning. When we go and look into this a little further, a reference book we use states that teletherapy isodose plan (codes 77306-77307) and simulation (codes 77280-77290), on the same date are bundled.
