Good afternoon
I am new to billing and to this forum so I have a couple of questions respecting 90853. Our clinician is an LICDC II and this is my question: If Medicaid allows and processes 2 units for 90853, why don't the MCP's that fall under the Medicaid umbrella allow and process same? I tried billing for 2 units and it came back denied indicating "claim exceeds the number of allowable units for this procedure". I even tried using the modifier of 76, and U3. How can I bill for 2 units?
