Hi,

I am totally new to pathology coding. I have been doing some research and have become even more confused. I have a list of pathogens to test for and I need the CPT codes. We test nail clippings for fungi and bacteria. Does anyone know where to find these codes? For example Onychocola canadensis, I believe the code to test for this is 87101. Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
Melanie
