Does anyone know if 55040 - unilateral hydrocelectomy requires a left or right modifier?:o
 
I don't think so since the definition of the code is unilateral. I would only append it if the surgeon removes one on the left side one day and then removes another one at a later date on the right side. Hope this helps
