Wiki ultrasound & E/M visit .. HElP

[CODING1234]

We had a patient who came to the office for a wwe exam at the time the physician ordered an ultrasound for the following day. After patient had the ultrasound pt was seen by the provider to discussed the results.

a 76830 and a 99212 was billed and it denied as been inclusive a modifier 25 was billed. Is this correct ?

without seeing the report no definite answer can be given to you sorry. but maybe you need to append modifier 26 to 76830 (unless the MD owns the equipment and actually did the US also)
