Hi, I work in the billing department and oddly enough until now I”ve never had this issue. How do I bill two separate codes each with their own authorization number? Do I put both on the auth line? Patient came in and picked up their OA (E0486) but also had a CBCT (70486). I have a gap exception auth for E0486 and I have a separate pre-auth (not gap) number for 70486. I don”t think it matters but both auths were obtained from different places/companies. Also does this get a modifier 51 or 59 or does that not qualify since one is for DME? Using DW to bill. Thank you for your help! -Aurora
