Our practice has been billing Twin ultrasounds using the 59 modifier to report the services performed for the second fetus. I have found that we often receive denials for "Duplicate Service" even though we have the modifier appended and the diagnosis for Twin 651.03.

Today I was advised that we needed to use another modifier for the CPT 76820. I have read in the past that the 76 modifier could be used. would that be appropriate for this procedure?
