Can someone help me with a modifier that would be attatched to a denied E/M service that was performed the day before a 90 day surgery, in addition to a -57? I tried a GB, but that was also denied. Thanks!
 
The modifier 57 should be all you need. There are some insurance carriers that will NOT pay for the E&M the day of or before the surgery. Just make sure the pt isnt currently in a previous global period from your practice (modifier 24 if unrelated). Otherwise you might have to appeal. good luck
