Medicare keeps denying labs
Hi,
I have been taking medicare patients for a while.
lately after a local community center went bankrupt, i decided to take a few patients.
One current issue I keep having is that medicare keeps denying coverage for labs like cbc, chem panel, lipids, hemoglobin A1c.
The labs (quest/labcorp) don't know what it is either other than we have the wrong codes.
I am using the standard codes for bipolar/schizophrenia. F31.x, F20.x etc.
Anyone else having this issues/have experience with this?
