Has anyone used modifier 76 for a bilateral cerumen impaction? My new employer is insisting that is the only way Medicaid will pay that service. But obviously the description for modifier 76 does not apply😔
 
the codes used for cerumen impaction 69209 unilateral and 69210 bilateral, these codes wouldn't need a modifier as the laterality is included in the code description. You could also reach out to your state's Medicaid and see how they want it billed.
