Help... I need some clarity on this. My surgeon did a lapband procedure. During the global period he wants us to bill for the first adjustment, using the modifier 58. The procedure code is S2083. My question is really two parted. First, can you even us a modifier on a HCPCs code? Two, is the adjustment included in the global fee. I understand the surgeons rationale, this is a planned procedure. I just feel funny about billing this way.
I would really appreciate it if someone could shed some light.
Thank you
