I am in a Dermatology practice and when patient get a biopsy and it is proven to be skin cancer we call them back in to have it excised or refer to plastic surgery. If the patient is non complaint and we attempt to contact and the patient will not come in how do we notify medicare of this. I know we would use the dx code Z91.19 but is there a HCPCS we use. I can not notify them via claim without a CPT/HCPCS. Does anyone know where I can find information on this. Thanks for any help you can give.
