Wiki 66982 & 67010

[TMB1965]

My provider that I work for wanted me to bill 66982, 67010-51 out, but according to the NCCI Edits they are bundled. If its the same site wouldn't I bill just the 66982, and if its different sites would it be 66982, 67010-59, and do you need the rt or lt with it as well? Any suggestions on how to bill these 2 codes?

You are correct, the two procedures need to be performed on contralateral eyes to apply the modifier 59 to the 2ndary code 67010 and also using the LT and RT modifier would be correct also.
