A Look Under the Microscope: Reporting Laboratory Services in CPT
When you look into a microscope if you are untrained, you see something that looks like artwork. While these are services that are routinely performed, the scope doesn’t always come clearly into focus. Questions often linger about which codes can be reported for which service, what is bundled, whether to assign a modifier and what diagnosis code(s) should be used to ensure coverage.
Attendees will be able to:
- Utilize learned information to make logical decisions regarding coding for laboratory services in CPT
- Apply rules for selecting the diagnosis and achieving medical necessity for reported services
- Determine when a modifier is needed and when a service is not separately reported
- Describe key regulatory guidance specific to coding for laboratory services and apply this knowledge in their own provider’s claims.
