The professional fee for the procedures identified in the table below will be reimbursed at Medicare rates when the service is rendered in an ASC. To identify that the professional service was done at an ASC, the line item on the claim must use the SG modifier. The SG modifier for professional services should only be used when a hernia repair or a knee arthroscopy is done in an ASC. 

Multiple Procedures 

When multiple procedures are performed during the same session, the ASC claim should reflect the highest or most complex procedure. 

Additional payment is not available for multiple or subsequent procedures performed at the same surgical setting. When multiple procedures are performed, the procedure with the highest reimbursement should be listed first on the claim.
