Hopefully I Can Explain My Question Clearly.
Say You Have A Practice With X-ray Equipment, And They Take
X-rays And Interpret Them By Outsourcing Them To A Radiologist That Works For Them. In Other Words They Bill The Whole Global Charge For The X-ray Using The Appropriate Cpt.
Now My Question Is, Next Door To This Practice Is Another Family Practice (different Group). I Work For Them.
Say This Practice Sends A Patient Next Door To Get An X-ray Done, And Then This Patient Comes Back Two Days Later With His/her Films To Be Read. Meaning A (wet Read). Do We Bill A X-ray With A Modifier 26, Or Just An E/m Visit.
Confusion Lies In, The Practice With The X-ray Equipment Is Going To Bill The Whole Global Fee, So Are We Aloud To Bill Out A Modifier 26.
Is That In Compliance.
Confused.
Respectfully
