Wiki V76.51/v12.72???

[danazaw]

per hospital we have to bill
V76.51, V12.72= G0105

V76.51, V16.0 = G0105


I do

V12.72= G0105
V16.0=G0105

You do not need to bill the V76.51 with either G0104, G0105. It is inherent in the CPT code that it is a screening. However, if you were to use a 45378 or other diagnostic CPT code, then you could use the V76.51 as the first diagnosis.

Is this for Medicare?

no Blue Cross is telling pts and Troy Beaumont is telling pts that is that I am billing it wrong.
They are telling them that I have to do it that way but, I don't understand why and how

It's not a make or break code. You can bill it with the V76.51, it's just not normally needed.
