Wiki 96372 - Would I use modifier 59

Create Wiki
Is this all that was done----just the tubercullin test? If so, you should not bill the 96372Modifier 59 would not be applicable if this was all that was done. And the TB test is not subq or intramuscular so that would rule out using 96372.
 
Further details make a difference

Ah, there were more procedures involved, which changes the picture and original response to you! I assume you meant the 35415 to be the 36415 code for the venipuncture, right? Are you using the 96372 for the admin code for the 90715? If so, you shouldn't. You should be using a different admin code for that. And the 86580 will not need a modifier.

If you have a CPT book it would be helpful to check out the "Immunization Administration for Vaccines/Toxoids" in the Medicine Chapter.
 
yes it is the 36415, and everything got paid except the 96372 and the 36415. The provider didn't bill an admin code for the 90715.
