I have been getting conflicating information on the scenario listed below. Hopefully somebody can shed some light on this and help me.
CPT code 11200 States Removal of skin tags any area up to 15 lesions.
CPT code +11201 States each additional lesion 10 lesions or PART OF
Seeing that 11201 say's part of would their ever be a time that you would use modifier 52.
When you use both of these codes 25 lesions can be removed. What if less than 25 is removed? How many less than 25 would you use modifier 52? Seeing that 11201 says part of does that mean that you would never use modifier 52.
Any help that somebody can give me would be appreciated.
Thanks
