Global periods

[cvickid]

Can anyone help me. I have been all over the medicare website. Where can I find a list of the global periods 00,10,90 by CPT code?

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

Someone may have a more user friendly site, but here's one:

http://www.cms.hhs.gov/pfslookup/02_...es&next=Accept

Go to:
-choose how many codes you want to search (single, list or range)
-Payment Policy Indicators (click next)
-click next
-Enter your cpt code
-On the "modifier" drop key, select "all modifiers"
-click "submit"
-There is a "global" column that provides the days
