The patient had a incomplete colonoscopy to the anus on 11/9 and returned back on 12/3 for a repeat (full down to the cecum). The one on 12/3 that was a repeat has to be repeated in 30 months due to poor preparation again. On the second colonoscopy that was done on 12/3 should a modifier 52 be added? All the colonoscopies are being done because of rectal bleed.
 
And so, the 1st colonoscopy was discontinued because ........? It was repeated on 12/3, but due to poor prep was incomplete again. Did I get this right?( I just wanted to get all the facts before suggesting or advising you with anything).
