This is the first time I've seen a post procedural complication unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) Pt 3 days post simple skin abscess 10060 following up with a different provider noted allergic reaction to Bactrium ,antibiotic was changed and treatment for allergic reaction was provided as well as increased inflammation surrounding tissue requiring further evacuation of cyst culture was obtained ,provider documented 40 minute appt with greater than 50% spent face to face counseling pt and husband on wound care,and avoidance of sulfa based drugs such as neosporin etc all questions were answered with understanding I believe this is billable (not using CPT 99024),hoping I'm right. Also since this visit was within the 10 day global is there a modifier that I should use .Honestly I've gone through every single one to no avail The second Provider did not do any more of an incision ,simple evacuation and culture Obviously this visit is related to the original procedure Different Provider I'm at a loss Hoping for a life line ,please and thank you in advance Cheri
