When should you apply modifier -PV?

Modifier -PV is specifically used to identify services related to preventive care that are provided under special arrangements. This modifier highlights that the procedure or service was performed as part of a preventive health initiative, often involving specific expectations or arrangements between the patient and the healthcare provider. By utilizing this modifier, healthcare providers can accurately reflect the nature of the care provided and ensure appropriate reimbursement for preventive services.

Other options do not align with the appropriate application of modifier -PV. Applying it to an evaluation leading to surgery, indicating an omitted procedure, or complications from previous admissions does not accurately reflect the preventive nature or arrangements implied by modifier -PV.
