Can group psychotherapy (90853) and psychiatric evaluation (90791) be performed on same day?
 
As per the CPT book. "Codes 90791 [and] 90792 are used for the diagnostic assessment...Psychotherapy services, including for crisis, may not be reported the same day."

Also, the NCCI edits say no modifier is allowed.
