This patient had a screening DEXA bone density test. Primary insurance is Humana Medicare Replacement HMO, and secondary insurance is BCBS. The only diagnosis is the screening code Z13.820 with normal findings. Since Z13.820 isn't covered by Medicare, it's giving me an error and won't let me submit the charge. If I add modifier GZ, then will the secondary insurance pay? I don't understand why BCBS is secondary, but that's how the insurance is listed. Also, no ABN was signed.
