Otolaryngology & ENT billing FAQ
How do you prevent denials when billing nasal endoscopy (31231) with an office visit?
We verify that the medical record details a distinct and separately identifiable evaluation with standalone medical decision-making before appending Modifier 25 to the E/M code.
How do you navigate multiple endoscopy reduction rules in sinus surgery?
We model the base endoscopy code values against secondary sinus procedures, sequencing the highest RVU surgery primarily and tracking appropriate modifier 51/59 indicators to protect net surgeon yield.
