Wiki using the correct modifiers

[nancy.anselmo@ccrheart.com]

A pt presents to the office for an office visit and ekg
99214-25
93000
Then the Dr decides to place a holter moniter
93224
So I put a 25 on the 99214
But the EKG always gets denied do I need another modifier?
Thanks Nancy

Yep, you need a 59 on the 93000, otherwise it is considered bundled into the 93224.
