Hi,
I'm confused with the wording on the CMS
doc below . Can someone please explain with a few examples on how to code and modify the charges for Medicare patients -especially sedation
99152/99153
https://www.cms.gov/Regulations-and-Guidance/Guidance/Transmittals/2017Downloads/R3763CP.pdf

One more question,
If patients underwent an incomplete G0105-53
and returning within 12 month to complete the screening
In view of the coding regulations and all charges integrity, should the second visit be coded to G0105 or to 45378?

Thank you,
Booz, COC
