For Surgeons

Operative notes across the specialties: the catalog spans orthopaedics, spine, general surgery, ENT, urology, and gynecology, with the E/M engine covering your clinic days. The four places surgical work leaks credit, each fixed with one documented sentence.

The bottom line
Four leak points, each fixed with one documented sentence.
A procedure plus a visit
Modifier 25 pays only for separate work. The injected joint never buys the visit level; a second problem managed in its own right does.
Fracture care without the OR
Closed treatment codes carry a 90 day global and often outpace visit-by-visit coding. The calculator shows both paths side by side.
Visits inside a global period
Routine postop care is 99024. Unrelated problems pay with modifier 24 when the note makes the distinction obvious.
