Was taught to add the P modifier to the 5 digit anesthesia CPT code if it was a P3 or higher, and the AAPC study guide does indicate to append the P modifier to the code. However, I just found out that our computer system at work is actually not calculating correctly and the P modifier isn't showing up on the claim(only in the modifier field). Does anybody bill just the CPT code without the P modifier attached and only put the P modifier in the modifier field, or are you doing both? Example 01215P3 with modifier QKP3, versus 01215 with modifier QKP3? TIA!!!
