Hello,
I started using S2068 instead of 19364 for a DIEP Flap Breast reconstruction. I have two surgeons in my office that are CO - surgeons for this procedure. I just received an EOB from UHC stating that modifier 62 cannot be used with S2068. I looked it up on Encoder pro and it is saying the same thing. Does anyone know why or how to get around it? It also says I cannot use modifier 80 as an assistant. Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Maria
