I have not seen the op report, I have got those codes from the MD, notified her of the rejections and she told me to bill it with -59. I explained how -59 works and she told me her report supports the use of it. so i billed it, but can't get the 3 of those paid together. from your info, -59 with 76000 and -59 with 75989 correct? that didnt work..

oneround:
-59 on the 76000 s/b enough.  And  they still denying the 76000-59 as still inclusive?  Who is the carrier?
