On adult patients we try to give ABO compatible but we give the shortest dated product first. On our neonates they have to be compatible. We currently are running into very short dated pheresis products due to the new Bacti testing. We have no requirements for Cryo.

I am having to revamp the way we are billing and I am wondering if anyone else is out there dealing with this? What HCPCS code used for Irradiated Leukoreduced CMV- Deglycerolized Divided Red Cell? Do you use P9011 - Blood Spilit unit? Or use P9057 - RBC Deglycerolized Leukoreduced Irradiated? Or use P9058 - RB Leukoreduced CMV- Irradiated?

Many of us have questions or solutions for others. Have a fourm where someone can ask.

We still weak D on all Rh negative patients.

We are not doing this

We use the microscope for: DAT, Fetal Screens, Kleinhauer-Betke, Rouleaux
