Wiki Mohs done in global period of ED&C

[smartcoder]

Mohs was done in global period of ED&C by a different provider. Do I need to use any modifier (79) for Mohs and repair? Thanks for any help.

No, the global period is on the other provider's procedure and is not a repeat of the same procedure.

An exception to this is if the two providers are in a group practice and bill under the same tax ID. Then you would need to use the 79.
