Can modifier 82 be used with the same specialty? I have a plastic surgeon who assisted another plastic surgeon (in the same group) with a vaginoplasty, bilateral orchiectomy, penectomy, urethroplasty, clitoroplasty, labiaplasty and perineoplasty. The note clearly states the assistant was needed due to no qualified resident.
