Can a primary care provider bill the 97760 when applying splints/ braces to a patient? Or is this only a PT code? If so, what modifiers should be used and what documentation is required? Thank You!!!
I would like to know the same thing. The supplier who deals in the back braces we use said that we could code 97760 for this, but when I tried it (with a 99214, 25 mod.) Medicare kicked it out with an N70, saying consolidated billing applies. Any ideas?
