Humana requires all levels to have a location modifier. For example if my provider preformed the following injections:
right L2-L3, left L4-L5 and bilateral L3-L4 Transforaminal ESI
we would bill most carriers as follows
64483-50 / 64484 2 units
but Humana wants the additional levels to have a location modifier, so how would this be billed to Humana?
64483-50 / 64484-50 ?
I know that the additional levels are not on the same location but it was done RT/LT. If it was LT/LT or RT/RT I know we would do 2 units but since it is not I feel my only option is 50 for bilateral. I am correct in thinking this? our would we bill:
64483-50 / 64484-RT / 64484-LT?
