99397 and 99495

(1/1)

TXBiller:
I have billed Medicare for 99397 and 99495.  They paid on 99495 but not the other.  When I submitted the claim I did not include a modifier.   How do I get Medicare to pay on both?  I'm not sure what modifier to use.

TIA

Michele:
You cannot use the E&M code 99397.  Medicare has a specific code for yearly exams, G0439.
