We’re updating our obstetrical ultrasound policy

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan covers the first three obstetrical ultrasounds during a pregnancy. Additional obstetrical ultrasounds must be billed with the KX modifier. This modifier indicates that appropriate documentation is on file to show that the additional services were medically necessary in case there is an audit.
