CPT modifier -22 is used to indicate that a procedure was more complex or took significantly more time than usually required for the standard procedure. This modifier helps to convey the increased work involved, allowing for potential additional reimbursement. It is important for the provider to document the reasons for the increased complexity in the medical record to support the use of this modifier. Modifier -22 is typically used in conjunction with the relevant procedure code on the claim.
