Good Morning!
Our Physiatrist is looking into drug screening patients using Saliva Collection method, for those patient who can't give a urine specimen during their visit.
My question is, is there a different code when using this collection method? I can not find anything on the company's website nor in the cpt book. I don't think so but just would like to have your input before I go tell my Administrator & Dr.
I'm hoping someone can help me with this.
Thank,
Melody Josey, CPC
