Wiki protime 85610 in Provider Based Clinic

[daisywinters]

Does anyone know the correct way to bill for cpt 85610 in a provider based clinic? If we bill on the professional side on 1500 we get denied for place of service. If we bill on the technical side on UB we get denied for included in other service/procedure, even when there are no other charges billed for that day. Any input would be appreciated!

If a finger stick is involved, we use 36416, 85610 QW modifier and our claims have not denied.
Hope it helps..
