If a physician orders 80048 and subsequently orders 84132 on the same date of service, which modifier is appropriate, -59 or -91 ?
Per the FAQ on the CMS web on "How should modifier -91 be reported under CCI?"
"...the physician had to perform a repeat clinical diagnostic laboratory test that was distinct or separate from a lab panel or other lab servcies performed on the same day..."
Thank you for your help.
