If the patient is pregnant with Twins...can you bill the 76820 twice on the same day as 2 units?

Thanks

This test determines the velocity of blood flow through the umbilical artery. As this is a twin pregnancy, it would have to be performed once on each fetus and should be billed as such.

Per ACOG, 76820 is to be billed seperately for each fetus with a modifier -59 added to the addition code(s).
 
in patient billing 76820 76819

these inpt code are being denied as part of service during hosp visit can we add 59 mod to those codes for reimbursement?
