When our post partum patients come in, our doctors perform a pap smear on them. Can we bill the pap smear seperatley? If so, what dx code do you use?

Thanks!
 
If the patient's previous pap was normal, use screening for cervical cancer as your dx code. This code should be used anytime a screening pap is done and the visit is not for a routine gyn exam (such as postpartum visit)
