We have a medicare patient that we did an i&d (19020) on the breast on 06102008. The patient came to the office on 07182008 and the physician performed a limited debridement on the wound (11040). Should this be considered part of the global period (90 days) or would a modifier 58 be appropriate for this date of service?
Thanks in advance,
Heather
