I have visits with
appointment type : "Telemedicine 10 minute"
Here , Do we need to use modifier with E & M codes over here depending on the type of appointment ? If yes Which ?I mean as per my knowledge, 95 modifier with CPT code for commercial insurance plans, while the GT modifier must be included for Medicare and Medicaid plans is used. Request to guide the importance and requirement of these modifiers and effect on payment.
