Good Afternoon,
I have an anesthesia charge for an Incomplete EGD for an Inpatient. The case was stopped due to Rapid Heart Rate. We did bill this with a 53 modifier and Medicare has denied as, "Procedure code inconsistent with modifier or modifier missing."
Can anyone help me out with what to do next. This denied with remit code MA130 so I have to resubmit this - there are no appeal rights.
Thanks!
