If you have a post op cortisone injection (for the same body part as surgery) is modifier 58 the best selection? If so, do payers have specific policies for modifier 58? In the same sense, modifier 79 (unrelated) as well?
 
If the injection was done for pain control after, during the post op, it's probably not billable. What exactly was the scenario?
