Our patients are getting bills for labs done as part of their physicals. Mostly for Vitamin D. How are you suppose to code for labs other than the Z00.00. Especially if the patient doesn't end up having any of the problems you are testing for. These tests are expensive, how do you know if someone has something unless you test them for it.
PS. we are also having a BIG problem with dexascans 77080. It looks like unless the patient has Osteoporosis, Cushing's syndrome, Osteopenia you can't do a screening Dexa. It looks those are the only codes they cover. What happened to being able to bill for , menopause, screening for osteorosis? Help please. Thank you
