Description:
When a medical claim is a denied, one of the first things to check for is a missing or misused modifier combination. It’s easy to mix up modifiers. Unfortunately, mix-ups can lead to delays in payments or, in some cases, nonpayment. Worse, they might trigger an audit that can lead to hefty fines.
The webinar will cover:
- The definition of the modifier, and how to ensure the use is meeting medical necessity;
- Billing modifiers that are more commonly misunderstood, like modifiers 25, 24 and 59;
- How misuse could be a red flag and possibly cause an audit;
- A few billing scenarios of when the commonly confused modifiers are used properly; and
- Tips of when to never use these modifiers.
