Hi,
I am trying to get clarification on the scenerio below:
Our Doctors are in the same group practice, different specialties and bill under the same tax ID number.
The plan of care is as follows: Patient has an endoscopic CABG (LIMA to LAD) than 3 days later goes to the Cath lab for PCI of 2 different vessels. Can we use a modifier 58. The CABG has a 90 day global period. Everything I am reading states staged procedure by the same physician or different physician within the group practice but same specialty.
CT Surgeons and Interventional Cardiologists are not the same specialty. I need some clarification please how the above scenario can be billed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
