Modifiers
Modifiers are 2 digit codes which accompany a 5 digit CPT code in
order to further describe a situation to support additional payment
when more then one service is being reported in the same session
on the same day.
Primary Care Modifiers
25, 76, GE, GC
Modifier 25
Modifier –25
Should only be appended to evaluation and management (E/M)
service codes HCPCS codes G0101(Breast & Pelvic Screening)
and Procedures
You do not need a modifier 25 when billing an office visit and
also billing for:
1) Diagnostics (eg. EKG)
2) Immunizations
3) Screenings
Modifier 25 Examples
Modifier 25 Examples
1) When the patient presents for a planned procedure and has
a different problem that requires an E/M service (two different
diagnoses would be used to distinguish the services)
2) the patient presents with a "minor" problem and after
evaluation the decision is made to perform a procedure. In the
second example –25 is used if the procedure is minor in nature,
meaning that the post-operative period is less than 90 days
and the primary diagnosis would be the same for both.
Modifier 76
Modifier 76
Use modifier 76 when you repeat a service already performed
with the same diagnosis code within a 30 day period.
Example: Chest pain order EKG 93000 and did a repeat 2
wks later same diagnosis “ chest pain” – affix modifier 76 on
93000.
