Can codes 92928 and 93458-26 be billed together ? I am seeing cci edits stating that these two codes are comprehensive column 1 codes. Modifier 26 is not one of the modifier s that would override this edit ? Please advise.
The 26 modifier indicates that the charge is for the professional component (i.e. the cardiologist). In addition you would add a 59 or XU modifier to indicate that the 93458 was separate from the intervention.
