I am trying find the right code for a patient that had a chest tube placed, but then had to have it repositioned during the global period. Provider A originally placed the chest tube, but then provider B, from the same practice, removed and repositioned the chest tube, using the original incision. Can provider B code the removal and also the insertion if modifier 77 or 78 were added?

Here is the OP note:
