Hi all,
A patient came into the office for this test. 82274 blood, occult by fecal hemoglobin determination by immunoassay , qualitative, feces 1-3 simultaneous determinations.
I billed this with appropriate E&M code.
I added modifier QW (CLIA waived) and medicare denied.
I did a resubmit on this with modifier 25 on office visit (dr. has not done these before so I am unfamiliar) and it denied again.
The medicare denial is 16 claim/service lacks information or has submission billing errors.
Can anyone tell me what I am not doing correctly.
Thank you for the education.
