I just came across this scenario and was wondering which modifiers I would use.
Pt comes in and has a vascular procedure done in July, is in a global for 90 days, then my general surgeon does a cholecystectomy on her (79) but now my vascular surgeon is bringing her in for a complication from her vascular procedure, so do I use -78, and -79? Won’t thiese cancel each other out?
Keep in mind both MDs are under the same Tax ID.
