Eagle Eye 202 Posted April 27, 2016 Hi Everyone, do you have a billing code(s) for TEG 6S? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stradfam 1 Posted January 17, 2017 Good morning everyone, I am validating a TeG 6S and need to submit my test request to the LIS department. How did you set up the CPT Codes? Platelet Mapping- 85576 times ? (platelet aggregation each agent) 85396- interpretation for platelet mapping TEG citrated assay- 85347- Coagulation Time, activated 85384- Fibrinogen Time, activated 85390-coagulopathy screen & interpretation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BankerGirl 183 Posted January 19, 2017 I used 85576 x 3 for the Platelet Mapping and 85347 x 2, 85576 x 2, and 85384 for the citrated assay. We just started doing these so I don't really have any feedback from the payers to say if that is correct, but I got them off google for another hospital that used them. I can't find the exact one now so can't tell you what hospital that was, sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stradfam 1 Posted January 19, 2017 Thank you. I have reached out to the vendor. They haven't responded yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BankerGirl 183 Posted January 20, 2017 I doubt that they will respond. I asked and was told that they are not supposed to give out that information because they are not coders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Townsend 82 Posted January 20, 2017 We are implementing the ROTEM (same type of testing, different manufacturer). We were told by the manufacturer that cpt 85396 is what should be used. Makes sense - "Coagulation/fibrinolysis assay, whole blood (eg, viscoelastic clot assessment)". Problem is that this cpt code is only a charge of once per day. Looking to see what others are doing for billing... Stephanie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
