Hello:
If a patient is in the hospital and the doctor bills for a subsequent care day on the same day he reads a echo & TM . Do you need to add mod 25 on the care day to get it paid?
I don't think you do
because it is a diagnostic test. I don't ever remember addding mod 25 when I was a biller on care days when a test is also read by the same physician on the same day.
A biller I know was told to do this and I am not sure that this is correct and now I need to figure this out but nothing I find really give me a straight answer...So any input would be greatly appreciated.![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
