Our Rural Health Clinic has taken over an orthopedic practice. The original clinic has billed their surgeries with modifier 54.
My question is:
What money amount do we attach to our charge for the postoperative care?
I know that we use the surgical cpt code with modifier 55 appended as well as the date range of the surgical global we are billing for. I have read some information that we bill with the total amount for the surgical pro fee and the insurance will appropriately reduce the charge.
Am I correct?
