When an ENT doctor does a flexible fiberoptic laryngoscopy/drug induced sleep endoscopy, does modifier 22 get applied to code 31575 for the drug induced sleep endoscopy or do you just bill the 31575? I've heard some say to apply the modifier and some say don't use the modifier so I want to make sure I'm coding it correctly.

Are you talking about Moderate (conscious) sedation? Look at codes G0500 & 99151-99157. Anesthesia by surgeon outside of conscious sedation is inclusive.
