Hi everyone!
We are an outpatient surgery center and usually when we bill a three level bilateral cervical/lumbar radiofrequency ablation procedure it would look something like this (example):
64633 - RT
64633 - LT
64634 - RT
64634 - LT
64634 - RT - 59
64634 - LT - 59
My question would be; is the -59 modifier used correctly for this procedure or should it be left out (this facility has done it for many years like this)?
I would appreciate any advise!
Thank you!
