I have a question on billing an E/M visit on the same day as the initial treatment planning for a course of radiation therapy. The E/M is done first prior to the planning, which could be billed with codes 77290, 77334, or 7726 The E/M visit will get denied by the Ins. carrier if a modifier '25' is not attached. If this is done and the E/M visit is fully documented, shouldn't the E/M be paid, or do there have to be special circumstances involved, in order to use the '25' modifier?
