New to Podiatry Coding... need some pointers..

I am new to Podiatry and was wondering if anyone has any resources or any pointers to help me get started. Does a list of Podiatry modifiers exist?? Any comments would help immensely! Thank you!

Most of the Medicare contractors have a foot care billing guide. I would start there.

Hello

you will have to use Modifer T1 thru T9, TA, 24,25,58,59,78,79 and some times Q modifiers required. It all depends upon the situation you are billing under. You can get a breif discription on the link mentioned under.
