80061

I tried to bill 36415, 85025, 80053, 83036, 80061, 83704 and I'm getting an error message saying "80061 is not payable as coded", I've been looking and can't find out why.....Any suggestions?

80061 is a component of 83704 or vice versa and if you need to bill both you would need a modifier.

Thank you, yes I used a 59 modifier on 80061 and it went through, I appreciate your input

re: 80061

Is the 59 modifier appropriate for billing 80061 and 83704?
