Hi, I need help on this. Not sure if I am overthinking this.
Pt in endo office for OGTT, fasted overnight. IV started, baseline growth hormone and glucose drawn. Glucose drink given, glucose and grown hormone levels drawn 10 min later then drawn again at 30, 60, 90 and 120min after oral glucose given. IV removed. Specimans sent to lab for results. Dx for testing: R73.01, E21.0 and E31.21.
This is where I'm confused...we are not doing the labs. Do I still bill using 82951 and 82952?
I've looked in my book for help on this. The IV cpt codes do not appear to apply since we didn't do an infusion nor give a drug in the IV.
Any help or information on where to find this resource would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
