What is modifier 25 used for in medical billing?

Modifier 25 is used in medical billing to indicate that a significant, separately identifiable evaluation and management (E/M) service was provided on the same day as a procedure or other service. It helps to clarify that the E/M service was not merely a part of the procedure but warranted its own level of reimbursement. This modifier is crucial for ensuring that healthcare providers are compensated appropriately for the additional work involved in evaluating a patient's condition. Proper use of modifier 25 helps prevent claim denials and supports accurate billing practices.
