If 2 extremites are tested, do we bill 95886 as 2 units? Do we append modifer 50? Thanks!
UPDATE:
I just wrapped up a phone call with Cahaba GBA. Effective July 1, 1013, they are no longer accepting modifier 59 for additional extremities. They are requiring modifier 76 instead. I don't know what other carriers will be affected by this.
Example
Line 1 - 95886
Line 2 - 95886-76
