This guide includes definitions of minor procedures used frequently in primary care and urgent care. And, even more important, instructions for billing the services. No minor procedure guide would be complete without a discussion of modifier 25.
It is also the reference for CodingIntel’s Coding Skin Procedures webinar which you can watch here. Be sure to browse additional resources for surgical services, modifiers and the global package.
