Hello all! I code dermatology, will someone please help me understand this. With the CCI edit changes for July 2019, my coding software, DermCoder, is now telling me to put a modifier 59 on certain ADD ON codes only and not the primary codes.
Here is one example:
17000
17003-59
17110
Why would only the add on code need the modifier 59? Is this correct?
I appreciate any help on this!!! Thanks!!!
