Wiki Denial of primary code when billed with +add on code

[MichaelGA]

Is anyone experiencing denials for the payment of a primary procedure, but receiving payment on the +add on code. Ex: 14301, 14302? This is Palmetto GBA in GA.

No opposite here in PA we get paid on primary and denied on add on they wants a 59 modifier added to add on even tho that has never been done before when we add it it pays also found that Derm Coder states if the bundling is happening to use 59 on add on
