Has anyone experienced Medicare denials for the new Ophthalmology codes 99201 & 99202?
We have submitted with and without the XU modifier and the code is still denied.
Any thoughts?
 
You must have incorrectly read or written down something 99201 and 99202 are new patient office visit codes and are not new CPT codes. Where are you getting your information? Did you look in the code book?
 
LOL...yes the codes are 92201 & 92202...sorry for all the confusion.
So, does anyone have any information on these 2 codes..... Thanks
 
I would like to know if the 92250 can be reported together on the same date of service with the 92201? if so can I use modifier 59?
 
I'm not getting denials from Medicare, however we are seeing a lot of denials from Medicare advantage plans, they are paying 92202 and bundling 92250 to it. I would think that is backwards? Any thoughts?
