Pt had a total Abdominal Hysterectomy (58150 ) and a Repair of an ubilical hernia (49585) . Recevied a denial for bundling . Has anyone received denials or have any information regarding billing for a hernia repair.
 
Check CCI edits

I don't see them as bundled as per CCI edits.

You might want to use -59 modifier (I know, it shouldn't be necessary, but ...)

I would appeal w/ copy of CCI edits.
