Many times our provider will see a patient that has been in urinary retention and do an E/M and then a voiding trial on the same day. They will prescribe a medication (such as Bactrim) to cover for the Voiding Trial. For the E/M, they have enough dictation for a 99214 because of prescribing the Bactrim, but would I include the Bactrim in the procedure instead of in the E/M part of the visit?

Anesthesia & Clinical Trial Modifiers
I have claims for anesthesia services for a Clinical Trial procedure. The claims are hitting an Edit stating that it is being billed with an Invalid Modifier, which would be the Q0 or Q1. I am unable to find anything whether anesthesia services are included in this modifier for the Trials or if anesthesia is exempt from this modifier.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!!!

0282T- Spinal Cord Stimulator Trial Removal
Hi there!
I need assistance in coding for the removal of a spinal cord stimulator just 3 days later because the patient was not satisfied. The Dr coded a postop visit with the fluor 77003, but that doesn’t look right? Please help! Thanks!
