Often yes when it's medically necessary, but coverage for Facet Joint Injection depends on your plan, your deductible, and how it's coded (screening vs. diagnostic, for example).

Yes — CPT 64493 is defined as a facet-joint injection of the first lumbar/sacral level WITH fluoroscopic (X-ray) guidance, so image guidance is part of the quoted price, not an add-on. What can bill separately: IV sedation if you request it, and the facility fee when the injection is done in a surgery center rather than the office. Verified Austin cash quotes run $150-$1,400 — confirm yours is all-in.

Budget for more than one. Facet treatment typically starts with a diagnostic block to confirm the joint is the pain source, then a therapeutic injection — and each additional spinal level bills as an add-on code on top of the first-level price. When comparing Austin quotes (clinic pricing from $150 per level), ask for the per-level price, the add-on-level price, and how many visits the treatment plan assumes — that's the real total.
