However, this particular modifier is exceptional in regards to where and how it should be appended. This is because for modifier 51, appropriate coding must take into consideration the RVU (relative value units) of the performed CPTs in order to be billed effectively. To put this into context and provide a clearer understanding of modifier 51, we\u2019ll get started with explaining what exactly this modifier does, then discuss how and when to use modifier 51.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DEFINING MODIFIER 51<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As mentioned earlier, modifier 51 is primarily put to work for physicians who bill surgical services. CPT guidelines explain the 51 modifier should apply when \u201cmultiple procedures, other than E\/M services, are performed at the same session by the same individual. The additional procedure(s) or service(s) may be identified by appending modifier 51 to the additional procedure or service code(s).\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, modifier 51 reports that a physician performed two or more surgical services during one treatment session. The modifier would be applied to any secondary procedures performed. But with modifier 51, qualifications for the \u201cprimary\u201d procedure code may be different from what you know about the use of other modifiers. To report the 51 modifier correctly, the coder should list the procedure with the highest RVU (highest paying) first, and use modifier 51 on the subsequent service(s) with lower RVU (lowest paying). Let\u2019s get some clarification by reviewing examples of modifier 51 in use. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CLINICAL SCENARIOS<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In order to better understand exactly when to use modifier 51, let\u2019s take a look at some examples of modifier 51 correctly in use for multiple surgical procedures.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Example One:<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A dermatologist performs an excision of a malignant skin lesion. During the patient\u2019s treatment, a separate skin lesion is discovered which the physician thinks warrants closer attention. After obtaining consent from the patient to perform a second procedure, the physician performs a biopsy of the new site. To bill correctly and appropriately, the coder would list the surgical services rendered as follows:<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">12031 (wound closure)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">11600-51 (excision of malignant lesion<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">11100-51 (biopsy of skin, single lesion)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a good illustration of where our coding assumptions and the coding rules go their separate ways. Many billing and coding staff would think the excision should be indicated as the primary procedure since it is the reason the patient obtained treatment. But with modifier 51 being dependent upon procedure cost, we find that the closure (highest cost) should be billed as primary, with the second and subsequent procedures of the excision and biopsy (lower cost) needing modifier 51. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Example Two:<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An OBGYN\u2019s patient is 10 weeks pregnant and schedules an appointment due to vaginal bleeding. After examination and ultrasound, the physician decides the patient is having a miscarriage and recommends immediate treatment. The patient also requests the placement of an IUD. The OBGYN performs a surgical completion of the miscarriage and inserts the requested IUD during this visit.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modifier 51 would be applicable in this scenario as follows: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">58912 (incomplete abortion completed surgically)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">58300-51 (insertion of IUD)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">76817 (ultrasound)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A LESSENING NEED FOR MODIFIER 51<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As with all matters of provider service billing, it is important that billing staff be proactive and stay informed about the billing industry and payer standards. Learning and adapting to any changing necessity of modifiers will help the practice as a whole stay ahead of the billing curve. For instance, Medicare no longer requires modifier 51, as their internal systems are programmed to add 51 internally to the correct procedure code(s), and make the appropriate reductions to the remaining services billed. Many payers follow suit to the standards of Medicare, so it is evident that with modifier 51, knowing what payer requirements are in your area will be key to appending modifier 51 correctly avoiding unnecessarily denied claims.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SUMMARY<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understanding correct and appropriate use of modifier 51 will be key to filing correct claims, which will then result in correct payment. Not only does the 51 modifier allow us to code physician services to the highest level of specificity possible, but it ensures the physician is paid accordingly for those services. However, it\u2019s important to stay aware of the most current payer guidelines for appending modifiers, particularly modifier 51. Rules for applying the 51 modifier may vary depending on your state or locale, so it\u2019s advisable to stay informed of any upcoming changes in payer requirements in order to maintain claims approvals and a healthy revenue flow for your practice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"display: none;\" data-sumome-listbuilder-embed-id=\"63167955acecc7c017d1349e21976b34c69d1681cdcbe88c9a25211c5006fd11\">DUMMYTEXT<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sources:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aapc.com\/blog\/24298-choose-a-surgical-modifier-50-51-or-59\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.aapc.com\/blog\/24298-choose-a-surgical-modifier-50-51-or-59\/<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aapc.com\/blog\/31802-is-modifier-51-becoming-obsolete\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.aapc.com\/blog\/31802-is-modifier-51-becoming-obsolete\/<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-dermatologist.com\/article\/1516\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.the-dermatologist.com\/article\/1516<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is part of the Modifier Series, the articles include: Modifers 59, 25, and 91 Modifier 59 Modifier 25 Modifier 26 Modifier 22 Modifier 51 Modifier 51 is a modifier you probably use frequently if your provider performs surgical services.
