I'm a new coder, coding podiatry procedures for the first time, needless to say I'm struggling a little bit. I was hoping someone from the list could give me a correct sequential coding of a procedure for both Medicare and other Ins. companies. (Modifiers are killing me on this one)
Thanks a Bunch,
