Modifier Rules (Professional)
Beginning January 1, 2024, Empire became Anthem. This article, published under the former brand, now applies to Anthem.
Beginning with dates of service on or after February 1, 2021, Empire BlueCross BlueShield (“Empire”) policy language has been updated to add Modifier FB to the related coding section and indicate that when used in the adjudication of a claim reimbursement may be affected.
Modifier FB is defined as an item provided without cost to provider, supplier or practitioner, or full credit received for replaced device.
For more information about this policy, visit the Reimbursement Policy page at empireblue.com/provider.
