please help ;) Can you code for both an open partial colectomy w/ anastomosis and small bowel resection? if so, do you add modifier 59 on resection? We are having trouble with reimbursement for both in the same setting.
example 44140, 44120-59
Or is the resection bundled into the partial colectomy? thanks
