is modifier -59 (for 64450) the correct way to bill the nerve block with the surgical procedure?  i went to the ncci website to see the edits.  found an excel spreadsheet for column 1 and 2 codes.... i checked today and the page doesn't exist anymore, only mutually exclusive codes (what does that mean???)

 Mutually exclusive" codes represent procedures or services that could not reasonably be performed at the same session by the same provider on the same beneficiary.  If your going to tack on that mod. -59 you wanna make sure that your documentation supports it. If no supporting documntation then no modifier.
