My doc reported cpt 41113 x2, and is attempting to use the -50 mod. Would this be correct, as he did a biopsy of both the right and left side of the tongue? Or would the -59 mod be more appropriate?

Thanks!

We have tried and found the only way to get this paid is to break it out with the 59 modifier (and then usually you have to send in notes):o .
