Patient was seen by our providers for 4-6 visits antepartum, moved to a different state and received some antepartum visits there, came back and we saw her for 1 antepartum visit and then delivered twin c-section. Unfortunately, we had already sent out the 4-6 antepartum visits to her insurance. I want to correct the claim to 7 or more visits and bill the c-section only w/pp care with mod. 22 (per insurance OB policy).

Is this the right way to do it?
 
When you say "Patient was seen by our providers for 4-6 visits antepartum, moved to a different ....." how many visits exactly did she have? was it 6??? The reason I am asking is because I THINK (Check w/ others), you can simply add that last visit like E&M and not correct the original claim. And if you do decide to go w/ corrections make sure your TF period did not expire. Othervise everything else seems to be just about right.
Hope this helps Good luck!
