Can someone tell me when you have 2 modifiers to append to a CPT code.....which modifier goes first...Is there a rule of thumb for this.....

I would be using Modifier 52 and 26


Thanks Pat :)

I would use the money modifier (52) then the prof comp(26).
 
I agree with Rosalie...use the modifier that drives the payment first. In this case -26 because it is telling the payer that you did the professional component (not global and they won't bundle with the technical component).
 
yes, I agree with Rosalie and Lisa - they're correct, the .26 professional side is always (same for technical side if coding that side, TC first)....then the other mods follow.
