Do I need a modifier, if so is it 62, and 59 what?

How would I report this?

One surgeon does a colporrhaphy, another does a repair of rectocele at the same time.

How would I report this?
 
Mod-62 with additional criteria. Each surgeon should be performing their own distinct procedure and have their own op report. Both surgeons would append Mod-62 to each of their codes as to not receive a denial. This is not the same as an assistant surgeon, modifier and criteria is different.
