Can someone explain why I'm getting paid in full for the cysto 52000 and half for the 64566even though these are for seperate Dx and seperate site of body. I appended -59 ? Please help
 
Medicaid in Arizona does not recognize different site/dx code. They pay 100% first surgery & 50% for any procedure there after. Perhaps NV is following the same concept.:)
 
Most payers abide by the multiple surgery rule regardless if dx's and body parts are different...the procedure with highest RVU gets the primary payment...
