Hello all! I was just wanting to make sure I had the correct information on how to code this scenario. Patient was admitted to L&D for an external cephalic version and induction. The version was successful and patient delivered vaginally a few hours later. This wouldn't be part of the global package, right? I would not need to add a modifier to 59412 on this claim correct?

Correct. It is not included as part of pre-delivery services. You would not need a modifier since there is no CCI edit either, but some payers may require a modifier -51 on the same day of service.
