Ok I hope someone could help explain why we would use a GY modifier? It should be simple but I maybe over thinking the definitions.
GA lets them know we have a wavier on file for a non-covered service or supply and GZ lets Medicare know we did not get an ABN for a non-covered service. So why use GY when all it does is let Medicare know we know it is not covered.
Our billing company has on our encounter form to append the GY to show we have a waiver for a non-covered charge. I don't think this is correct. Please save my brain cells on this one.
Thanks
