My main issue is coding for PAPs with Well Visits, PAPS with E&M and PAP only billing. Basically I understand for commercial Insurances Well Visit coding 99385 etc; include the PAP fee in them and for E&M we put a modifier to 99213 etc -25 and G0101 (Well Woman Code) + Q0191 (Pap Smear) and we used to get paid for the G0101 but off late we are not and for Simple paps we just bill G0101 + Q0191 and we get about 25 - 40 bucks which seems like a pittance.
Can we code V72.31 with 99214 for a PAP? Any advise is appreciated
