We had a patient who was scheduled for a prostate biopsy. We had the procedure room prepped and kit opened. Then the patient decides he does not want to do it. I realize we cannot bill for the procedure ( it was not done), but are we out for the kit and supplies??? I guess so. I am just venting! so unfair.

I believe you can report the procedure (look at modifier 53 or 73 discontinued procedure) and bill the supply. If either modifier doesn't look appropriate to your situation I would bill just the supply.
