Factor Five Genetic Testing for Procreative Management: We are having a debate on how to code this (CPT and ICD-9). Can anyone helps us settle this? What would you do? (Physicain and in house lab)
Thanks ;)
 
RE: ICD/CPT Factor V LEIDEN

Pls find the CPT codes:
FACTOR V LEIDEN MUTATION DNA analysis

83890(1)+83891(1)+83892(1)+83894(1)+83898(1)+83912(1)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For Non Medicare
S3843- DNA analysis of the F5 gene for susceptibility to Factor V Leiden thrombophilia
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RE: ICD
Coding Guidelines Note: If the purpose of genetic
counseling is associated with procreative management, a
code from V26.3X should be assigned as the primary code,
followed by a code from category V84. Any additional codes
would be assigned if there is a family/personal history.

As I need additional information for ICD code choice, (reason for genetic testing is NOT specified; diagnostic or predicting the presence with F/H) I'm just providing you the ICD guidelines.

Thanks

I agree. I use all of the above 26 and V84 codes. I have a question, if a physician sends to my lab personal and family history, but does not mark off the icd9 codes, can I code them to bill?
