INDEPENDENT INTERP OF TEST X 2 ? DOES THAT COUNT AS "HIGH"

Hello, if a doctor does an interp of 2 tests (CT scan and MRI), does that count as meeting "2 categories" because he did two different interps or does it still only count for "1 category"? I used the AAPC e/m calculator and it would not allow me to select "2" for that category so I am leaning towards this would still be "moderate", but wanted to ask here.
