What does a Fee Schedule Group (FSG) allow?

• A. List a procedure only once per schedule
• B. Merge two schedules
• C. Remove a procedure
• D. List a procedure multiple times with different dollar amounts dependent on modifier

Answer: (D)

A Fee Schedule Group is used to price the same service in multiple ways within the same system by associating different dollar amounts with different modifiers or contexts. This lets the same procedure code appear more than once in the schedule, each entry reflecting a distinct price depending on the modifier used (for example, professional versus technical components or payer-specific terms). That’s why listing a procedure multiple times with different dollar amounts dependent on modifier best captures how FSGs handle variations in pricing.

The other options don’t fit because a Fee Schedule Group isn’t about merging schedules, removing procedures, or limiting a procedure to a single entry.
