Good morning all!

I have an unusual scenario.

Doc A was performing a Bronchoscopy and fell ill. Her partner was called in to take over. Doc B documented the procedure, giving details as to what he did and as well as what Doc A did and Doc A signed off on the note. Doc A did not create her own note but did perform the OP discharge. I’m not sure what modifiers if any need to be used.

1. Pooled bronchial wash Doc A
2. LLL BAL Doc A
3. LLL posterior segment endobronchial bx under direct visualization with forceps Doc A
4. LLL protected microbiology brush under fluoroscopic guidance Doc A
5. LLL cytology brushing under fluoroscopic guidance Doc B
6. Additional LLL endobronchial and transbronchial bx with forceps under direct visualization and transbronchial bx sone under fluoroscopic guidance Doc B
7. LLL bronchial wash Doc B
8. EBUS with samples for cell block taken from station 10L left main stem bronchus Doc B

Thanks for your help! :)
