Cardio meets with patient and gives equipment with direction of use 95800 with Mod -TC
Patient brings back equipment and Cardio downloads report
Patient brings back equipment and Cardio downloads report
Pulm picks up report and does interpretation 95800 with Mod -26
But, if Total Recording Time (TRT) is less than 6 hours, Pulm also adds a Mod -52 for reduced services.
The question remains if Cardio needs to add Mod -52 to their charges even if their work was done when handing off equipment.
We cannot find definite answer to this and want to bill correctly.
