modifier 59

(1/1)

best biller:
do i use modifier 59 when billing 97032,97140,97112,97110?
when i add the modifier do i add it to each code or only to one?

DMK:
If they are each individually performed services you add it to each service.

QueenAlicia:
Is this for Physical Therapy?  I just saw the 97110 code

best biller:
it is for a provider that did therapy on a patient.

QueenAlicia:
Yes, I see the therapy but is it for a Chiro or PT?  They use the some same codes and mods. DMK is right.  I download the medicare billing guides for the different specialty's and they give which codes and modifiers to use.  Usually the other panels follow medicare/medicaid guidelines but not all.  Good luck.
