Does anyone have input on billing a modifier 26 on Device Checks that are done in-house?

Typically I do not bill for cardiology so this is new to me & I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around using a modifier 26 on a POS 11 claim. If everything is done in-house, why would we only bill for the professional component? Is this a typical billing scenario?

Thanks!:)
 
So if the interrogation is being done by the nurse, there would be no requirements to bill with a 26 modifier? I believe that this clinic is losing a lot of money if that is the case.

Thank you for your response
