i am coding for ER and the nurse does a UA. Its a urine cup and they look at the test strip and compare it to the bottle they have to get the results. I am not sure if i should use 81001 or 81003. Please help
I'm having an issue with the ED charging both 81001 & 81003. When you look at the lab report, the UA is there with microscopy results. There aren't 2 separate results, so I've been removing 81003.
