Good afternoon fellow Coders,
Patient came in for follow up exam 99215 and cpt 69210 removal impacted cerumen Medicare paid 69210 but denying office visit as PAYMENT IS INCLUDED IN THE ALLOWANCE FOR ANOTHER SERVICE/PROCEDURE could I appeal this or would adding modifier 25 to the E/M be sufficient?
Thank you,
