Wiki 36415 and 85025

[sweatherford]

In a physician office, can you report 36415 for the blood draw when reporting a 85025 or is this included with the 85025?

Good morning,

I ran this scenario through the Encoder CCI unbundles program and it states that they indeed can be billed together.

Hope this helps

I agree they can be billed together, you may have some carries however bundle the blood collection code with the lab code.

Thanks so much...

One thing I failed to mention is that if there is any other service provided - such as an E&M, they usually bundle the draw fee into that.

Have a good one
