I have a physician who wants to perform a procedure at an ASC and he wants to take the portable ultrasound machine he owns from his clinic to use during that procedure at the ASC. How should I bill the ultrasound charges correctly for both the physician and the facility?
 
You would bill with the 26 modifier for the professional component with the physician service. The ASC would have to forgo the technical component because it is not their equipment. The physician could not bill the global or split PC/TC from Medicare payment standpoint because they will not reimburse a global payment in a facility POS (24)
