Hello Fellow Coders:
Independent Lab coding for a 25 target diarrhea pathogen panel PCR. What code should we be using? 87507 has restrictions like must have an immunocomprised code. I know we should be billing what is performed, but is there any other way we can code this without immuno dx code? Trying to get some research to present to boss. I see other threads where some companies are using 87798? I have in the past had issues getting this code processed.
