Lisa,
Check the CMS Claims Processing Manual: http://www.cms.gov/manuals/downloads/clm104c18.pdf
It's in section 20, page 48 when I pull it up.
Hope this helps,

Hi
GH Modifier
If the patient came for screening due to abnormality the doctor converts screening into diagnostic in that case we will code Diagnostic mammography with GH Modifier,
GG Modifier
If the patient came for screening and the doctor does screening, due to a abnormality he/she wants to take diagnostic mammogram, if he takes Diagnostic mammography, Then we will append GG Modifier to the relevant CPT.
