Question Tape used with wound care

I am having trouble billing for one patient who gets tape used with other wound care supplies. Can anyone help me with modifiers? I have tried just about everything.

Default Tape used with wound care

In addition to the A1-A9 and RT / LT modifiers, you need to add AW

The rule that works for me; if the bandages have RT/LT modifier I always
include it on the tape line item. But it's not always necessary (a coccyx
wound wouldn't have RT/LT).

thanks so much! this has been driving me crazy. It's not that much money, so I kind of put it on the back burner, but hopefully you have given me the answer!
