Why physical therapy is different
Physical therapy is billed in timed units under the 8-minute rule, and one miscount or a missing KX/59 modifier is a denial or an overpayment refund waiting to happen.
We calculate timed vs untimed units under the 8-minute rule, apply the GP therapy modifier, manage the KX modifier at the therapy threshold, keep plans of care certified, and separate distinct services with modifier 59.
