What modifier would be used to indicate a service was provided more than once by the same provider?

The appropriate modifier to indicate that a service was provided multiple times by the same provider is Modifier 76. This modifier is specifically used in cases where a procedure or service is repeated by the same physician or healthcare provider on the same day.

When a procedure needs to be billed more than once, Modifier 76 clearly conveys the message to payers that the same service was performed multiple times, which is essential for proper reimbursement and documentation. Utilizing this modifier ensures that claims are processed correctly and that the provider is compensated appropriately for the repeated service.

The other modifiers listed have different uses; for instance, Modifier 51 indicates multiple procedures when performed at the same session but not specifically for repeat services. Modifier 25 denotes a significant, separately identifiable evaluation and management service performed by the same physician on the same day as a procedure. Modifier 59 is used to indicate distinct procedural services that are not normally reported together but are being billed separately under specific circumstances. Thus, Modifier 76 is the correct choice for indicating repeated services by the same provider.
