Can you bill 14060 x2 with the -50 modifier for bilateral earlobe repair?
 
The skin is a single organ system and the bilateral modifier does not apply; I double checked on the RBRVU Table first. The tissue transfer defects square cm should be added together for a total then the CPT codes selected based on that number.

14060 19 sq cm or less
14061 10.1 to 30.0 sq cm
14301 30.1 sq cm - 60.0 sq cm
and so on.
