I understand the difference between these modifiers, but I have a question regarding the correct use.
We only perform the x-ray at my clinics. We send the x-rays out to be read by an outside radiologist. We have a contract with the radiologist for the reading of the films and we pay him/her for this service. My question is do we still appended modifier TC to our x-rays since we pay the radiologist for the read? I don't know if the radiologist bills or not. Thanks.
