This means modifier 52 should be applied to CPTs which represent diagnostic or surgical services that were <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reduced<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by the provider by choice.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At first glance, it may seem modifier 52 is similar to modifier 53 for <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">discontinued services<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. However, an important point to note is that while these two modifiers are used under similar circumstances, they\u2019re distinctly different in how they should be correctly used. These two particular modifiers can cause confusion, and applying them incorrectly to your claims can lead to underpayment or denials. We\u2019ve examined modifier 53 in a separate article in this series, so now let\u2019s take a closer look at modifier 52 and when it should be appended.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Defining Modifier 52<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we\u2019ve noted, the qualifying <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reduced service<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> codes for modifier 52 are very specific. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CPT\u00ae Appendix A states, \u201cUnder certain circumstances, a service or procedure is partially reduced or eliminated at the physician\u2019s discretion. Under these circumstances the service provided can be identified by its usual procedure number and the addition of the modifier \u201852,\u2019 signifying that the service is reduced.\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">C<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ircumstances for applying modifier 52 would <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">not <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">include a change to the procedure that was unexpected by the provider, so in order to append modifier 52 appropriately, you need to know why the services were reduced by the provider. Since modifiers 52 and 53 are closely related, the \u2018why\u2019 behind what was done will help clarify which should be used. An important reminder here on the rule with most modifiers: 52 should <\/span><b>not<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> be used when a CPT exists that better describes the scenario you\u2019re trying to report by using modifier 52.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To help illustrate when an applicable situation could arise, let\u2019s look at examples of modifier 52 in appropriate use. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clinical Scenarios<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><b>Example One<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A provider performs a unilateral tonsillectomy for a ten-year-old patient (CPT code 42820). In this case, apply modifier 52. This CPT assumes bilateral surgery, so to show that it was only performed on one side, or <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">electively reduced<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, modifier 52 would be appropriate. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Example Two<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A surgeon performs a laparoscopic procedure for the removal of bilateral pelvic lymph glands. The full description of the procedure includes \u201ctota<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">l pelvic lymphadenectomy and peri-aortic lymph node sampling (biopsy), single or multiple.&#8221; However, the surgeon removes all except the internal iliac nodes. As the doctor elected to stop short of removing the internal iliac nodes, appending modifier 52 alerts to the reduction in services for this procedure. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Example Three<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CPT Assistant (2016) also provides a valuable example: <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If removal of a transvenous electrode(s) was attempted by transvenous extraction, but was unsuccessful, report code 33234, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Removal of transvenous pacemaker electrode(s); single lead system, atrial or ventricular <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">with modifier 52, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reduced Services \u2026 <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on the circumstances as to why the procedure was stopped, modifier 52 is reportable <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">if no anesthesia was administered<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the physician <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">elected <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to terminate the procedure.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>When Not To Use Modifier 52<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The code description includes <i>unilateral<\/i> <i>or<\/i> <i>bilateral.<\/i><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An existing CPT or HCPCS code properly identifies the reduced service.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anesthesia administration and\/or the patient\u2019s wellbeing at risk were factors in ending the procedure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choosing between modifier 53 for discontinued services and modifier 52 for reduced services is all dependent on the physician\u2019s reason for stopping the procedure. While these two modifiers may seem similar on the surface, just keep in mind that modifier 52 is for <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reduced services.<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If you\u2019re appending modifier 52 to a claim, remember to maintain documentation explaining why the procedure was cut short. The documentation should provide plenty of detail to allow the payer to make a reimbursement decision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"display: none;\" data-sumome-listbuilder-embed-id=\"63167955acecc7c017d1349e21976b34c69d1681cdcbe88c9a25211c5006fd11\">DUMMYTEXT<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Sources:<\/b><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aapc.com\/blog\/42008-know-the-difference-between-modifiers-52-and-53\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.aapc.com\/blog\/42008-know-the-difference-between-modifiers-52-and-53\/<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is part of the Modifier Series, the articles include: Modifiers 59, 25, and 91 Modifier 59 Modifier 25 Modifier 26 Modifier 22 Modifier 51 Modifier 53 Modifier 58 Modifier 52 is outlined for use with surgical or diagnostic CPT codes in order to indicate reduced or eliminated services.
