Default Retrograde Pyelogram

When I bill Medicare 74420, perfomed during surgery by my Physician they are denying stating it is not payable in that place of service (it is being done at the Hospital as an Out Patient Service ).

are you billing it with the 26 modifier to show that this is the professional component?
