When is it appropriate to use 76000? When is it appropriate to use the modifier 52 in radiology? Example: Surgeon takes patient to OR or Endoscopy suite and performs a procedure. During the surgery/procedure fluorosocopy is used but the Radiologist is not present. However, the films are sent to Radiology and a formal report is dictated by the Radiologist. The report and the films are then sent to the coders to code. We read the report and it says a single lateral view, fluoroscopy assistance, C-arm images show blah blah please see operative report for further details. Then we look at the films/pictures and it shows a fluoro picture, but it states ie spine cervical 2 or 3 views. Should we code 76000 for fluoro, or 72040 for the x-rays. Plus we are not sure what soft images or your hard images mean? Modifier 52 we are using when fluoroscopy assistance is provided to the surgeon via C-arm images when an -oscopy procedure is performed ie endoscopic catheterization of the biliary ductal system RS&I 74328. Is this correct? PLEASE HELP!![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
