Wiki -26 modifer

My office does Pacemakers as well and I've never billed 33217 with any modifier. Accoding to the NCD the only acceptable modifier for Medicare is 51 and for commercial carriers any of the following: 22 47 51 52 53 54 55 56 58 59 63 73 74 76 77 78 79 99 AQ AR
CR ET GA GC GJ GR GY GZ KX Q5 Q6 QJ. Modifier 26 isn't listed anywhere. I would try billing it without any modifiers.

Hope this helps and hope it works. :)
