I am a Head & Neck coder & I have a concern I need some help with.
52 Reduced Services Mod on Neck Dissections
I was told that when you bill for a Cervical Lymphadenectomy Complete
(38720) or an Cervical Lymphadenectomy (Modified radical Neck Dissection) (38724) & the surgeon does not remove all of the levels of lymph nodes described in the procedure, that a 52 Reduced Services modifier needs to be appended to the case. Can anyone with experience in this procedure confirm that for me?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.
