Hello,
can please somebody help me with correct coding?
This is new for me. Can I bill 36902 with 26 modifier?
Our Dr. just started to do angioplasty (36902), also (36903 - 36906) in hospital also, and I am not sure of proper coding for just professional component.
Thank you
 
Codes in the surgical range are reimbursed based on the place of service. You do not need a modifier to indicate that you are billing only for the professional services since the place of service indicates this to the payer. Bill as you would in an office, but be sure to include the correct place of service for the patient, e.g. 19, 21, 22, etc. depending on the type of facility and patient status there.
