I am a physcial therpay coder and we have gotten a huge amount of write offs through Medicare with ANSI code co-59 which states, "Charges are adjusted based on multiple or concurrent procedure rules. (For example multiple surgery or diagnostic imaging, concurrent anesthesia.)"
I do not see a constant thing wrong with these claims, there are no bundling issues, no more 4 modalities are being billed at a time. I am just confused. Does anyone have any insight as to what this could mean i am doing wrong? Does each seperate timed procedure need a modifier -59?
I am so lost on this one any help is appreciated
