This is a follow up thread to my first thread regarding MIPS measure 397 for melanoma reporting. The company I work for is using an outside registry to report all the measures for pathology. This company is bundling non melanoma skin services billed with 88305 with the melanoma measure. It's my opinion that company is incorrect because non of those diagnosis codes are melanoma codes. Could someone please clarify or confirm the measure only covers melanoma diagnosis codes? Or, should I assign a MIPS measure to benign/non melanoma codes? From what I understand, from thoroughly reading the guideline, only melanoma codes and 88305 qualify for the measure. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
