A patient was seen in our office and had Cryotherapy (CPT 17000 + 17003) and also had an excision the same day. 2 different diagnosis, 2 different procedures. Medicare paid for the Cryotherapy but denied the Excision. I refiled the excision (11441) with a 51 modifier but they denied it as well. Does anyone know how to get this paid? Denial reason code is M80 - Not covered when performed during the same session/date as a previously processed service for the patient.
Thanks!
