Hi everyone,

I am new to the coding world for hospital and I have a question. I am coding for my plastic surgeon as primary surgeon performing 15734-50, She also assisted another surgeon in doing a ventral hernia repair. How do I bill for this. Do I bill for the 15734-50 on a separate claim and then bill her for the ventral hernia as the assistant surgeon with a 80 modifier? or do I include both CPT's 15730-50 and 49565-80 on the same claim form? Help!!!!:confused:
