V codes for triplet gestations (V91.10-V91.19
76801
76802 59
76802 59
I actually think it depends on the software you have. For example, with the software I used to work with you could enter the same procedure code twice and add the 59 modifier.
With the system I work on now, it won't let me enter the same procedure code twice, so I would enter 76802 x 2 units.
Hope this makes sense.

We don't need 59 for the second cpt.
