Neurology Billing
« on: February 10, 2011, 05:15:39 PM »
I have been trying to figure out how to get code "95934" [H-reflex test]paid from MCR and they are telling me it has something to do with the units, which are "2". Should I be billing this with "95936" or "95934 - mod 50" for the two units used?

Has any came across a similar situation when billing for a neurolgist?

We currently bill the 95934 with 2 in the units.  I don't use the 50 mod, but I haven't had any to Medicare specifically.  We do not bill the 95936.  What is the denial saying?

"The number of days or Units of service exceeds our acceptable maximum."

This is their first visit of the year with this provider too...

Have you called to talk to a customer service rep?  I would do that and ask them to point you to the guidelines in the LCD or NCD's.

Yes I went onto trailblazer.com to print out the LCDs for this code.
I'm looking to call after lunchtime today CST. :)

Thanks so far for your help...
