Does anyone know if BCBS and commercial insurances will pay a pap smear for a patient under 21 years old? The doctor is Family practice, not an OBGYN. Thanks!
 
befuddled

I have an added question to that if you are billing BCBS for a pap smear what procedure code are you using for it?

thanks
 
I was taught in a training that I went to a few years ago that an office doing the pap smear collection that a 88147 could be billed along with the preventative code. Can someone please shed some light for me. :confused:
 
Pap with OV

I was also wondering which CPT codes to use when a pap is performed with an 99213 for BCBS? I think it's Q0091 and G0101? I'm getting conflicting reports on the use of a G code in this situation some say yes some say no?? Help!
 
The G code is only for preventive services. If this is a diagnostic PAP then it is considered part of the office visit, if the visit is preventive you do not use a 99213
