I have always been told that when you bill for the assist you use the same code as the surgeon. Both Drs are in the same practice. So if we bill 59510 the assist should bill 59510-80. Is this correct?
Someone told me that the assist should bill 59514-80. She said that they get paid more when coding it this way.
Thanks for any help on this.
