Wiki COVID billing

[wendtjen]

Is there a specific code for billing when we do a covid test in our office. We send it out but do perform the actual swab. Did not know if there is an actual "test code" that we can bill the patients insurance for reimbursement.

G2023 for most insurances for COVID swab. 99211 for Medicare/Medicaid. Most payer websites have COVID collection codes listed.

If you're doing a swab and nothing else, 99211. If it's in the course of an office visit, it will be bundled.
