Several of our private insurance companies have suddenly decided to not pay for an ECHO when it is done the same day as an initial hospital consultation or a subsequent hospital visit. The consultation/visit is done at a different time but the same day. We append modifier 25 but the claims deny as unbundled not allowed; we send appeals but they are also being denied, is anyone else having this problem? any suggestions on how to get these paid would be helpful.
