Wiki Carefirst and 93306 with 26 modifier

[pdrgos]

Has anyone run across an issue with Carefirst not paying for reads on echos? I've tried sending them a copy of the AMA CPT 2009 where it states it can be billed with a 26 modifier, but they are still indicating we can not bill with a 26 modifier.

Any help would be appreciated!

93306 payment

I have a problem getting paid with Medicare for echoes CPT 93320 and 93325, I have tried billing with modifier 59 and still keep denying. Does anybody have a problem with Medicare paying Echoes?
