I know that modifier 59 can be used to indicate a separate compartment of the knee (ex: 29881, 29877-59)....but can it also be used on Arthroscopic procedure of the shoulder??
Ex: 29826, 29824/51, 29822-59 when subacromial decompression, distal clavical resection and debridement of the labrum and rotator cuff is performed??
CCI says 29822 cannot be used with the other codes...but I was wondering if modifier 59 could get it paid when used with 29826 and/or 29824 since it was performed in different area.
