My question is that is it correct to use the QK and the QY modifier for
Medicare on the same procedure when there is a CRNA also billing?
(ie.) The AA bills 00840 -QK,QY, GC and the
CRNA bills 00840 -QX,GC
I think that the QK modifier is indicating that the AA is overseeing 2 or more
cases and that the QY modifier is indicating that he is only overseeing 1 CRNA case at the same time. Too me it seems that the modifiers are conflicting. Can you help me understand this?
