Good morning Histoland,
our supervisor came in asking about an regulation she was told about
this morning that says no more than 9 IHC can be billed on a patient per day.
Can some one help me find a resource for this?

A couple scenarios:
1. FNA with immediate interpretation ( adequacy) and you make 4
cytospins from the remaining material?
2. Three more passes at the same site. What codes are you using?
3. What professional CPT codes are you generating.
Thanks.

I have a question about billing practices for special stains and IHC. We have
a single billing code for all of our group 1 special stains. (88312). For
example, if you order an AFB, GMS and PASF, it would bill as 88312 x 3. How
does everyone else bill in this scenario? We are being told
That's correct, Hazel.

Hi,
Please I have a question on the new IHC Billing Policies for CPT,
Medicare. My question is how do we go about the billing of the HER-2 DUAL ISH
and the Kappa and Lambda ISH?

When you have performed a special stain or immuno that does not help the
pathologist (tumor exhausted, etc) do you still charge for the technical
component and the pathologist credits the professional fee? Just curious..
Happy New Year, Everyone!

Hey Joyce,
My understanding has always been that if the pathologist specifically
mentions the stain in the report, then it's OK to charge all the fees.
However, if the pathologist chooses to leave any mention of the stain/immuno
in the report, then you can't bill for it. So if the pathologist

Histonetters:
If you do some work for another hospital (Histology) can you bill the hospital
or do you have to bill the patient directly? Is there a statute or Regulation
out there about this?
Thanks
