How to bill for sperm wash/sperm analysis during IUI treatment. Can this be bill separately? Please provide codes. Is this procedure is billable under women or men insurance? Thank you for reply.
 
Sperm Wash

During an IUI there are two different types of washes depending on what technique is used. If they use a density gradient formula it is 89261 and if they use the swim up method it is 89260. Both include semen analysis before and after.

89261 can be used for diagnostic test as well as IUI. It is billed under the male unless the female is using donor sperm, in which case, V26.1 would be used as the diagnosis.

are you aware of any code for sperm wash which is or was billable under women insurance?
