How is modifier 74 defined?
When it comes to coding for complex interventional radiology procedures like endoleak embolization, the stakes are high. Inaccurate coding not only threatens compliance and reimbursement
Under what circumstances should modifier 73 be used when reporting a canceled outpatient procedure?
When should Modifier 73 be applied, and what conditions must be met for its use?
When reporting CPT® codes 76376 and 76377 for 3-D analysis, what key documentation requirements must be included in the radiology report to ensure accurate coding and avoid ambiguity?
When are codes 0559T and 0560T reported vs. 0561T and 0562T?
Would the physician charge for both 93016 and 93018? Would a physician ever report code 93017 for his individual portion of the procedure?
Is the type of contrast and amount administered required to be documented within the radiology report?
The patient presents with sternoclavicular (SC) joint pain, and a CT of the thorax (chest) with contrast is ordered. The radiology report describes the SC joint in its entirety, but no other surrounding structures. Should I code this to 71260 or 71260-52, as only the SC joint was studied?
