Does anyone use the AA modifier after 99140AA when submitting claims? Are you getting paid if you do?

I do not use the AA modifier when using the 99140 emergency code. It is a qualifying circumstance and is reported in addition to the anesthesia code. The modifier would be appended to the anesthesia code only.
