Modifier 62 Two Primary Surgeons

My surgeon from my practice did a total abdominal hysterectomy and a bso and another surgeon of a different speciality did lymph node samplings and pelvic washings. The other surgeon billed 58200 with the 62 modifier and I wanted to bill 58150 with the 62 modifier for my surgeon. My surgeon did not do the pelvic washings or lymph node samples only the tah/bso and both of the surgeons notes state specifically who did what. Am I wrong? Please help

Co-surgeons could be paid with code 58200 and each putting modifier 62 on code 58200, but documentation must be sent to support medical necessity for 2 surgeons. That being said, did they do a partial vaginectomy?. Modifier 62 means, 2 surgeons performing same procedure code/different parts of code description. Medicare pays 125% of allowed, or 62.5 % for each surgeon, if approved for co-surgeons by documentation. Each surgeon dictates their portion of 58200.
