Can I use the 57 modifier, when a patient is seen for an OV, and have a cast applied on the same day? Medicare is denying our claims saying the modifier is incorrect.

some payers want the 25 modifier on fx treatment when performed in the office setting. I know that it has a 90 day global however when you perform it in the office setting then the payer feels the 25 is more correct. That is the only thing I can think of given the information provided.
