If these two procdures are done on the same knee. Do you bill the CPT code 27457 with modifier 59 or 51.
We billed 27447 and 27457.51.
Medicare denied and per their rep if we correct and appeand modifier 59 to the CPT code 27457 they will pay. Is this correct? I ma thinking, same session, incision, organ it should be modifier 51. Any help is appriciated.
Thanks
