I have two questions pertaining to billing FX care codes in a Family practice setting.

For a non-displaced Fx (i.e. Finger Fx) can you bill an E&M with modifier 57 (decision for surgery) and a closed Fx care code on the same day of service by the same physician.
(26750 & 99214-57).

Second question...Does splint application constitute billing a closed Fx code. (finger was splinted).

Thanks for the responses.
