Our office billed 44620-78,15330-59 and 36590-59 for a pts dos 2/24/10 to MC; MC pd 44620-78 but denied the other two "pre/post-op care payment is included in the allowance for the surgery/procedure". Checked the CCI and 15330 and 36590 can be billed separately. Does the coder need to change the modifiers or is this a write off?
Our office also billed 13160-78 (dos 12/22/09), 44312-75 (dos 12/18/09) and 44146 (dos 12/10/09) for the same pt.
Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated!
