I have always been told we do not need to place a 51 modifier on Medicare claims and Medicare has placed the 51 during processing. It has never been an issue, but recently our MAC Novitas has been sending refund requests. When I call the rep I can not get a straight answer - Novitas places the 51 on some claims, but sometimes the others "slip" through.
Is anyone having the same issue with refund requests all of the sudden on the multi rule ?
thank you
