Need help Medicare part B NM is denying 75710-59 due to missing modifier. We are billing 36246-LT, 76937-59, 75710-59, 99152, & 99153. All the other codes got paid except the 75710-59 due to missing procedure modifier.
procedure code 75710 required laterality modifiers (right-RT or left-LT) and modifier-59 is not required to bill with 75710 since there is no NCCI edits. Hope it helps.

We have already tried replacing with an anatomical modifiers and still comes back denying for missing procedure modifier. Are you able to provide an article were it states that it needs the laterality modifier?
