Dr. stented RC and then stented OM and RC hence the billing for
92980
92981
92981
Now the ins billed does not accept claims w/the RC and OM and RC so I drop the Report to paper and send w/the claim., my question is do I need any modifiers other than that on the 92981's Thanks Nancy

Okay, so your doctor stented the right coronary 2 times and the obtuse marginal branch? If so you should be billing the 92980 and 92981 (only once)

Other than the vessel modifiers that you have stated, you shouldn't need anything else on those codes but you can only bill for the stenting in the RC once no matter how many stents were placed.
