I have a question to Epic users in this community. I’m :confused:
When it comes to reduced diagnostic services, who is responsible to assign financial modifiers on hard coded charges?

I believe this s/b the coders responsibility by an access to the chargemaster or by emailing the biller?
Am I right?
Thanks,
