Wiki VIT Mixing on Same Day As E&M

[tworrock]

Hi everyone,

We have a patient that we saw in telehealth this morning (99213) and the physician has asked us to mix the patient's venom immunotherapy vials today. It would be 95145 x 17 units. Can we bill both the E&M 99213 and 95145x17 on the same day?

If so, what modifier needs to be used? The patient has BCBS.

Thank you!

Each carrier can set their own billing requirements for telehealth. In general, you can bill both services - just with the appropriate POS.
99213 with whatever POS and modifier your local BCBS wants for telehealth
95145 x17 for POS 11 (assuming you are an office POS).

Thank you so much!
