Does anyone know if I use a 25 MODIFIER on G0439 since our doctor did a procedure with the wellness visit. Would it be a G0439-25 with 11200? Appreciate the help!:confused:
 
I am new to this field having graduated in June and passed the CPC exam in May. I have been employed as the biller/coder at an internal medicine practitioner since March. I just read an article that stated you can code both the MR Annual Wellness visit and also code for an E/M with modifer 25 attached to the E/M making sure the documentation will hold up to both codes. I just coded two such office visits yesterday and will see what happens. Since I am fresh out of school and new to this field I am charging for things the other coder/biller didn't and finding ways to get paid for services that she would write off as unpayable by the payor.
 
You can apply 25 to the G codes if a procedure is done such as removal for impacted cerumen , and the office visit G code example G0463 ( Hospital outpatient clinic visit) the office visit was done and he had impacted cerumen removal with curette. cpt 69210, you would add modifier 25 to the G code:)
