When vasectomy is done in office but post sperm count is done at independent lab how would you code vasectomy? Would mod be needed? Thanks!
 
There is a 90 day global for 55250. The post vasectomy semen specimens checked in that global period are not billable. Check the CPT description which says "including postoperative semen examination(s)"
 
If you are billing just the vasectomy w/o E/M visit you shouldn't need a mod. Just bill the vasectomy.The sperm count is part of lab.
