Hi, I know that medicare will not pay for 80050 but I have two questions regarding this:
I heard that medicare will pay for this unbundled as long as medical necessity is proven for each test not counting a screening dx, is that accurate? I have seen this come up before on the forum but it was brought up by one member and I just wanted to see if there were others out there who could verify it.
My second question is why is it that medicare will not pay 80050, is there any literature that anyone knows of that goes into why it is not considered payable by medicare?
Thank you very much!
