What is the modifier for  the code of 99203 when this code/proceedure and another proceedure are performed on the same day.

I think you may be looking for the 25 modifier which is:

Modifier 25 is used to describe separate, distinctly identifiable services from other services or procedures rendered during the same visit. Always attach the modifier to the evaluation and management code.
