Wiki Medicaid Modifier for Aliens (MLA) Florida

[espforu]

We are getting denials for Florida Medicaid deliveries for emergency Medicaid for Aliens. They are denying the vaginal deliveries for a required modifier??

I have not seen a modifier for a vaginal delivery?

Thanks,

Did you add MK modifier? Also need to add a U modifier, U1 = 39 wks or less, U2 = 39 wks or more. That is the only thing I can think of.

Thank you, no we had not. Is this on the procedure?

We had been getting paid but this just started, Is this a new procedure for FL?

Not sure, I am in Texas and a fairly new coder. I was given this info from a co-worker that was training me. Sorry.
