Hello All,

I am trying to find information on modifier CG as it relates to surgical procedures.

I work with a pain management clinic and code the professional fees for the CRNA's. We completed a facet cyst aspiration and joint injection in the same encounter with both professional and hospital codes being submitted as 22899. The hospital has added the modifier CG to their claim and I am trying to figure out the details about this modifier so I can understand usage better. Most of the information I find about this modifier appears to apply to HCPCS codes and more of the medical/mental health & preventative visits so I am confused about if this is applicable to the code submitted.

Thank you!
