Here's the situation:
Pt has cataract surgery on the rt eye. Pt comes in for post-op visit. Billing sheet lists post-op visit and office visit w/mod. 24 - same dx. I have not yet requested the notes on this but I'm guessing that the office visit being charged is for the lt eye. Upon review of previous billing, this practice has done this quite frequently. Some insurances have even paid. Am I right to be very concerned????
