Hi!!
I was wondering if this scenario can be billed out...
Open heart surgery case
-Main surgeon bills out proper codes
-Assistant at surgery (other MD in the practice) bills for his assist portion -80 modifier
-Listed on the op report is 2ND Assist which is usually a PA.
My question is can i bill for 2 assistant surgeons
???
Does anyone have documentation that supports this either way??
Thanks!!!
