  1. Can you please tell me if it's allowed to bill these codes together since 29826 is an add-on code and if so, with what modifiers? There are 2 scenarios:

    29826 with 23410

    and

    23120, 29826 and 29822

    Are these allowed together?

    Thanks very much for your help!

  2. 1st case:
    23120
    29826-59
    *
    2nd case:
    23120
    29822-59
    29826-59
    *

    I have not yet come across any issue with this combination. Based on CCI I coded as above, but I think, based on other guidelines, I need to make a bit more research on the issue.

  3. In the first scenario, it's 23410, not 23120. Is this still permitted?
