You would code a titer. The reason the MD is performing the test is to see if the child has immunities/antibodies against hepatitis B. If he was testing for the virus, he would be screening for the virus being active in the blood. If you are still not sure I would certainly querie the MD and ask him if he is searching for the active virus, or if he is checking for immunity or antibodies.
