labs

Has anyone ever seen both a 82962 and a 82947 billed together? Why would they billed together and if they can be would you use a 59 modifier? CCI edits state they are inclusive but can be identified as such by a modifier.

you can do both

I might do a fingerstick 82962 and when it is an unexpected result then confirm it with a venipuncture obtained blood glucose 82947. A modifier sounds like a good idea to me.
