Provider billed this code twice because of the different area and different sizes. Should we add the to together and use a different code with in this section or should I just add modifier 59 & 76 to the second code?
Just put 17262 on one line with 2 units to indicate its 2 lesions.
-76 would not be used since its not a repeat procedure. That is when for example same lesion is excised twice during the global period
