I have a case for which the surgeon submitted 2 separate specimens from the same location (breast biopsies) - submitted as A & B.

Actin and p63 were done on each, A & B.

The pathologist has asked to no-charge B for 88305, but requests for the IHC 88342, 88341 X 3.

My thinking is that since only one specimen is being submitted for 88305, then the IHC would be billed 88342 X 1 and 88341 X 1.

Agree? Disagree?

Thanks!
