CPT code 99396, which is used for a preventive medicine evaluation and management service for established patients, typically does not require a modifier unless there are specific circumstances that warrant one. For example, if the patient has a separate significant medical issue addressed during the visit, modifier 25 may be appropriate. It’s essential to review payer policies and guidelines to determine if any modifiers are necessary for billing in unique situations.

Does cpt code 99396 require a 59 modifier?

Modifier 59 is used to represent a different session or patient encounter, different procedure or surgery, different site or organ system, separate incision/excision, separate lesion, or separate injury (or area of injury in extensive injuries) not ordinarily encountered or performed on the same day by the same physician. You would not use modifier 59 on an E&M service such as 99396.
