I am wondering if someone could help clarify this question for me: If a patient comes into the office and they get a nebulizer treatment while they are there do you append a modifier to the office visit or can you code both together? It has been brought to my attention that some insurances will not pay for both and others require a 59 on the nebulizer, but that does not seem right to me. If someone could help me out with this question I would really appreciate it.
 
They can be billed together. Put a modifier 25 on the E/M. No modifier 59 should be needed.
 
Administration Code for a Nebulizer Treatment

Is there an administration code that can be used when a patient receives a nebulizer treatment in the office and have provided their own medication for the treatment? We are just using our machine.
