Wiki Emergent Care Modifier

[mcowper44]

Is there modifier that can be used on a claim for emergent care? I recently received call from patient stating that Cigna said that we billed an out of network incorrectly because we did not put and emergent care modifier on it. I have never heard of one.

I wonder if they really meant Place of Service?
