Billing together (NCCI edits) Copy link
NCCI Q3 2026Based on CMS's National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI). A few examples appear here; use the complete edit page to check a specific pair.
Not separately payable with G0269 on the same date of service—no modifier bypasses the edit (modifier indicator 0)
Showing 3 of 12.
Separately payable with G0269 only when an NCCI-associated modifier is appropriate and documented (modifier indicator 1)
Showing 3 of 79.
Modifier 59 and the X modifiers are not a universal bypass—CMS expects the most specific applicable modifier, and which one that is depends on the pair and the documented circumstances.
Common payment questions Copy link
Why would a Medicare claim for G0269 be denied or paid less?
These come from CMS indicators on this page, not general billing advice.
- Its status indicator is B (bundled)—Medicare folds payment for this code into the service it is incident to, never onto its own line. See status indicators
- 12 codes form NCCI pairs with G0269 carrying modifier indicator 0—no NCCI-associated modifier bypasses the edit, so billed together on the same date of service, a line of the pair denies. See billing together
- 79 codes pair with G0269 under modifier indicator 1—separately payable only when an NCCI-associated modifier (59, or a more specific XE, XS, XP, or XU) is clinically appropriate and the documentation supports a distinct service; without one, a line of the pair denies. See billing together
Payer-specific coverage and documentation rules live outside these files, so a claim that clears every check here can still be denied on other grounds.

This page uses CMS's Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Q3 2026 release (effective July 2026). National baselines use GPCI 1.000 and exclude sequestration. Status and payment instructions determine whether a national amount is established; blank RVUs stay blank. Releases are immutable: historical evidence remains tied to the specified release. CMS owns the code description shown for HCPCS Level II codes. Our methodology covers the depth: sourcing, parsing, versioning, and how we cross-check claims before they ship.
