My doc saw a patient whom has two vaginas, two cervix's, and two uteruses. He did a colpo on both cervix's (57455) I am unsure how to bill this. Do I do two lines of 57455 with her abnormal pap dx and the doubling of vagina, and etc? Or do I bill one line with a mod 22 and double the price?
Also For future reference, how would we bill for paps? Q0091 twice?
Thanks in advance
 
I just recently had this situation where my doc did 2 hysteroscopy/polypectomies because of a double uterus, I billed it twice and submitted it wioth a letter and copy of the OP note.
 
76 modifier ?

Perhaps you need to use the 76 modifier for "repeat procedure" so that it is clear that you are not just accidentally submitting a duplicate charge.

Just a thought.
