Hello, wondering if when we do a Cone beam (70486) and send to another company for the reading – then would I use modifier 26 and add the fee for the reading to the Cone Beam fee? Thank you
Hi Megan Bryan! You would only need to split 70486 into the “technical component” (modifier TC) and the “professional component” (modifier 26) if the company/person performing the read/interpretation is separately billing the patient”s medical insurance for the read/interpretation. Otherwise, if you are paying that company directly for the read, you would bill 70486 without those modifiers. Hope this helps!
