Understanding DDD Transportation
DDD requires you have modifiers on each billing transportation.
They require the following
Pick up only - Modifier DR.
Drop off only - Modifier RD
Drop off AND pick up - Modifier DR,RD
This means you need to create 3 separate service codes so you can determine what type of transportation was performed.
We would suggest the following
- TRA Pickup = A0120 with Modifier DR
- TRA Dropoff = A0120 with Modifier RD
- TRA Both = A0120 with Modifier(s) DR,RD.
MAKE SUre the service codes are "hourly" and not daily.
Then if you have two units of transportation during the day (ie: pickup and drop off ) you would use TRA Both
If you only did one either pickup or drop off you would use TRA Pickup or TRA Dropoff respectively.
