Wiki Modifier for 96372 IM injection + same day flu Vaccine Modifier?

[Lweiner]

Can someone tell me if I need to add modifier 59 when an IM injection (96372)+ influenza virus vaccine (G0008) are given the same day? If so, is the modifier applied to the IM injection or Vaccine? thank you.

I'd like an answer to this as well. We've always billed it as seen below:

99212-25
J0696
96372-59
J0702
96372-76

For your example, we would bill it as:

99212-25
90658
G0008-59
J0696
96372-59

Don't take my examples as correct, I'm basically seconding your question with another example = /

I'd like clarification if the 59 is needed on the first 96372 and a 76 on the second 96372.

No modifier required

No, a modifier is not required for these 2 injections. You can bill them as you would if you were only doing one. If there is an office visit, a 25 modifier is still required for the office visit.
