Looking for some clarification:
Previously, in billing for injections. If different injections, different sites, I would use the -59 modifier to differentiate. So, now I am a little confused on to keep using the -59 or use the -XS modifier.
One Example-would be a patient comes in for a Xolair injection-given in 3 different injections--
RUA/SQ
LUA/SQ
LLA/SQ
Previously I would bill the administrations as:
96372 -LT
96372 -59,LT
96372 -59,RT
Any suggestions would be appreciated,
Thank you,
