Medical Coding Modifiers 58 and 59 - CEU on Demand Class
[ Ссылка ]
Q: [Modifiers (58 & 59)] “Can you give me examples of situations that need modifiers for CPT… especially 58 and 59?”
A: That’s a very, very broad question. This question was designed to be answered in 5 to 7 minutes, so I can’t go through every single modifier; however, we do have an on-demand webinar, and we’re going to have that modifier webinar coming up next month. So, join us on that and I’ll go over every single modifier and appendix A of the CPT manual.
But since you asked for 58 and 59, I’ve got some specifics on that. Here is a copy and paste from my appendix A of CPT, that’s where modifiers live. Some people don’t even realize that when they’re brand new at coding, they see the little shortened list in the inside cover of CPT, but they actually live in appendix A. That’s where you want to go and make your notes and really go look at the full blown-out definition of the modifier.
