Hello, trying to get some help on understanding the use of modifier 26.
Our podiatrist states that she can report reading for MRI, if patient is bringing in the MRI disc with images and she read it with discussion during the office visit. For example, a MRI of Left ankle w/o contrast.
Is it correct to report the E&M code with modifier 25 and the MRI code (73721) with modifier 26, LT?
Would this radiology CPT be reimbursable by all medical insurances? Or might need to submit to different payer like DME?
Thank you very much indeed for any information.
