Subject: Modifier -22 is used in conjunction with a surgery code, that explains that it was complex or more difficult.
I am a MT and a medical biller. Say for instance we use a regular surgery code 29880 (arthroscopy of the knee) and we might add a -22 if this procedure was more difficult than usual. We increase our fees for the surgery due to the difficulty, thus the -22 indicates why we upped our fees. Hope this helps and was not too confusing.

Yes, the KVO allows easy access
Subject: Yes, the KVO allows easy access
warranted. In my experience, the KVO rate was used during a transesophageal echocardiogram wherein if the patient needed a bolus of a med, then the line was there to give it. Saline was given at a KVO rate, but I think it also (slow drip) allowed hydration for the patient while undergoing the procedure. I believe these drips given at KVO rate can be started a lot of times in the ER to allow venous access.

I would recommend going ahead with an arthroscopy, meniscal debridement, and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
my question is would there be a comma after arthroscopy? He clearly says arthroscopy, not arthroscopic.

Should there be a comma MVR,CABG. I came across MVR/CABG and am now doubting myself. Thanks for your help.
status post mvr cabg
Subject: status post mvr cabg
hi,
Look what i have come across is that mvr is mitral valve replacement and cabg is coronary artery bypass graft so status post mvr, cabg or mvr and cabg is the proper way i feel. usually putting mvr/cabg means it can be either of the two but here both are different procedures so I guess to be on the safer side i think it should be cabg, mvr or cabg and mvr.
hope that helps.
