Wiki OV and Pacer check on same Day???

[jenbet25]

If you bill a 93280 (pacer check) and an OV on the same day they are being denied as bundled. Can someone please try to explain to me why? I would really appreciate it.

Have you tried using 25 modifier on ov.try that way and see if you haven't so far.

Modifier -25 is required on the significant separately identifiable E/M.

Pacerchecks have an E&M included in with the check. The OV must be significantly separate in order to bill for the OV. I would apply the 25 mod to the OV only if you have documentation to support the OV was not part of the Pacercheck.
