Does anyone know all the new modifiers for Cardiology. Still waiting on new coding books. Thanks Nancy
 
These are the only 2 I know about
Modifier LM, Left main coronary artery
Modifier RI, Ramus intermedius coronary artery.
 
RI - Ramus Intermedius
LM/LMCA - Left Main

There are now 5 major coronary vessels. The left main and ramus do not have branches for reporting purposes, yet.

HTH
