Dr. edwards, a cardiologist, and dr. mathews, a general surgeon, worked together as primary surgeons on a complex surgical case. what modifier would be added to the cpt surgery codes for the services of both dr. edwards and dr. mathews?
Doctor Edward and Dr Mathew require modifier-62. because they are two primary surgeons each performing different parts of a reportable procedure. we can say that functional modifier is a pricing because of the third party payer values it when wants to determine the reimbursement. When a doctor is listing multiple CPT modifiers he should list them from highest to the lowest.
