Need to bill with modifier 25
When you're writing the patient's diagnosis on their bill.
That is an ICD-9 Diagnosis Code for Vaginal Hematoma. It is used to bill for insurance purposes on reimbursement to a pharmacy and or hospital.
trial procedure.
That would be insurance Fraud!!
It's asking that you use the most specific code that applies to the procedure/diagnosis. An diagnosis example is: code 729.7 is Non-traumatic Compartment syndrome code 729.71 is Non-traumatic Compartment syndrome of upper extremity So on the bill to the insurance company they'll want the code similar to the 729.71 since it is more specific than the 729.7 code. For the above code, there are additional ones for lower extremity and other locations as well as a final "catch-all" for unknown location which I didn't list. In all cases you would put the 729.7x code. A procedure code would follow the same lines as the diagnosis example listed above. You simply select the procedure code that meets the requirements of the highest listed procedure. Most often this is measure by a count of some specific item such as minutes, units, or number of locations. This may require an additional modifier to narrow the code even further. I would think your original question was intended to be directed toward the diagnosis version since doctors have more flexibility with the procedure side. It is common to use a lower paying procedure in an effort to give a break to a patient (and insurance companies aren't going to complain about that one)

If you are trying to play a joke on someone, you can make your own letterhead with the name of a fake doctor. The medical bill will also need a procedure and the cost of the procedure.
The name of a bill that specifically names a person or group to be punished and does not provide for any trial or other procedure is known as a bill of attainder.
