We are a Hand Surgery group and have suddenly seen numerous denials for our billed office visit when a patient comes in, is examined and our Doc decides to give the patient an injection (example a steroid injection to relieve pain). This injection is not preplanned. We have always used a 25 modifier on the injection code, but are now having these all reject. Any suggestions, or are we incorrect in feeling that the doctor should get paid for his decision making skills and the exam itself? Thanks for any help.
