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.

If I have two sections on an "A" specimen A1 and A2 and both had a GMS stain,
do I charge 1 - 88312 or 2 - 88312?

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 tha
That's correct, Hazel.

Scenario: I am billing for immunostains and there are 3 specimens; A, B, C.
Pathologist orders 1 stain on all 3 specimens. I bill 3 88342's.
Pathologist orders 2 stains each on A and B. I bill 2 88342's and 2 88341's.
Is this correct?
