Modifier 25 with Medicare

[kmcdougald]

I know that Medicare is funny with modifiers. But I wanted to know if was appropriate to add a 25 modifier on a visit when coded with another qualifying E/M CPT code? Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance

If your documentation supports the parameters of the 25 modifier then yes you apply it to the E&M and Medicare will accept it.
