Hello,
I work for a hospital that sends out biopsies for an outside pathologist to read. How do I bill for this? Can we bill a 88323 (Level 4 surgery path) or can we only bill for the procedure that was done (e.g. CT needle bx 49180)?
What has been done in the past is the pathology lab sends us an invoice and then we use the CPT charges on the invoice and bill the patient for those.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thank you!
