We recently had a patient that had to come in again for a repeat pap as there were not enough cells.

The questions is...... do you charge again for this?

You help and guidance is appreciated.

my opinion would be no - it shouldn't be charged again. It's not her fault there weren't enough cells collected/sent.
(but I'm sure others might have a different opinion) ;)

Lisa,

Our office does not charge for the repeat pap for that reason. Even the lab we use doesn't charge for the 1st one.
