We have an issue where a provider is billing a 58573, 57425 and 50715. It is being denied because according to correct coding guidlines and code it right, 50715 is a column 2 code, and should not be paid with the 57425, but modifiers edits exist with 58573. Can anyone clarify if it should or should not be paid. Thank you.

50715 is bundled into the 57425

You can never report lysis of adhesions (44180,50715,58660) with a 57425 per the ACOG Components of correct procedural coding OB/GYN Coding Manual.
