Normally for a bilateral PNE we bill 64561 with modifier 50, but for the 1st stage permanent implant we bill 64561 alone. Does LT or RT need to be added for the permanent lead?
 
In my experience, most carriers will want -RT, -LT or -50. There's a built in edit in our software requiring a laterality modifier.
