Please help - 50590 performed on 5/22/2013 - the patient returns for procedures 52332, 52352, 52353 on 5/31/2013 - my question is - would the procedures performed on 5/31 be considered part of the global period for initial 50590 procedure? These are being denied. Thank you

If they all were truly related to 50590, then yes, they would be included in the global period. Did 52332, 52352, 52353 have a -58 or -78 appended to them? If not, that may be problem.
If the procedures weren't related, then they should all have a -79 appended to them.
I hope this helps. :)
