I work for an Occupational Medicine Facility and my supervisor approached me today asking if I knew of any ways we could bill for our Providers reading an X-ray for work comp patients prior to us sending the image off for our radiologist to read?? Our physicians view the x-rays prior to us releasing them to our off site radiologist who also interprets the image. I've done some research and have gotten mixed answers. My understanding is that we could bill "76140 X-ray examination made elsewhere" as long as we bill for the technical component and use Modifier 26? Is this true or are there any other ways we could bill for this to avoid any "double dipping" issues with insurance payers?
Thanks for any advice I can get!
