Oct 1, 2020 • Policy Updates / Reimbursement Policies

Beginning with dates of service on or after January 1, 2021, Anthem will update the policy language to indicate Modifier 90 will not allow reimbursement when reported in a Place of Service Office (11).

 

Modifier 90 is defined as Reference (Outside) Laboratory: When laboratory procedures are performed by a party other than the treating or reporting physician or other qualified health care professional, the procedure may be identified by adding modifier 90 to the usual procedure number
