X modifiers 96372

[Springc5]

So, I have a patient that received a toradol and a phanergan injection. They were given in seperate hips......

On the AHIMA website I have seen where someone says to use the XS modifier, but looking at the description and a scenarois it states seperate structure or ogan, different anatomical site, same encounter.

I guess my confusion is because this is treatment for 1 organ system, just 2 injections for the migraine.

I would appreciate any help!!!

Hi,

I hope there is no need to give modifier when bill two subq injection and need to bill with units like 96372 X 2.

But it gives like one IVP and one suq injection , I hope modifier XU is appropriate because not a surgical procedure.

Wait for others comment.
