can a hospital include a surgical component in addition to a CT biopsy with a technical modifer when preforming ct biopsies? -
The radiologist is already charging for the professional component and surgical component. |

You might want to include your state when you post this kind of question. |

The hospital should be reporting both the surgical and radiological components to capture their resources used.
