Modifier 22
At CCMS, we understand the complexities and nuances involved in medical coding, especially when it comes to using modifiers like Modifier 22. Modifier 22 is used to indicate that a procedure required significantly more effort, time, and resources than typically expected. Proper usage of this modifier can ensure that providers receive appropriate reimbursement for their work.
