So in the AAPC coder it indicates that this procedure is unilateral, and if coding for bilateral to use modifier 50. However, on the same page under the fee schedule RVU's it is a rule 2 for bilateral procedure: "RVUs are already based on the procedure being performed as a bilateral procedure."
Does anyone else have issues with this procedure being paid? and if not how are you coding this as bilateral and getting your claims paid?
