Patient with hemochromatosis requires blood to be drawn off for ~30 minutes, 1 time a week for several weeks and then periodically once on mainetenance.
99195 is what I am charging for therapeutic phlebotomy. Doc wants to also charge 36000 for the venous access to do the therapeutic phlebotomy. Is the 36000 included in the 99195 or should I bill both and use a modifier? If so, which modifier (51, 59, ?).
Thanks for any help,
