Good day all,
Just had a question in regards to this and if someone could confirm for me.

We had a patient come in and have cryo treatment done on some lesions so 54056 cpt was billed (which has a 10 day global period). However, patient presented a 7 days later and wanted them removed fully as cryo didn't work so well and so a shave was performed and lesions removed.

So what I have now is that:
Week 1, 54056 billed as normal
Week 2, 11305 billed with modifier 58

Will 11305 get paid with modifier 58 since it was related to the original procedure? Do I need the modifier at all in this case? Thoughts?
