Our breast surgeon has been placing orienting sutures on all of her margins. We had previously been billing under the assumption that the unsutured margins were 88305, but now with the sutures should we be billing an 88307 or still 88305 since they are margins?

Re: [Histonet] Billing question
This is incorrect. The response from Joyce Weems is correct. And yes, it's confusing to everyone.

Re: [Histonet] Billing question
Hey Joyce, My understanding has always been that if the pathologist specifically mentions the stain in the report, then it's OK to charge all the fees. However, if the pathologist chooses to leave any mention of the stain/immuno in the report, then you can't bill for it. So if the pathologist mentions a specific stain was done, but that the findings were negative, you can still charge. In the case of an exhausted tumor, I think the ultimate discretion comes to whether or not the pathologist chooses to mention it in the report. That's just from my experience, but I would love to hear how others are handling instances such as these, too!

RE: [Histonet] BILLING QUESTION
You can contract for services to another lab or hospital and depending upon the terms of the contract, you may be able to bill the patient. For example, you send all of your HER2's and ER/PR to another lab to be stained and quantified into a score. You may contract with the other lab for them to charge you a flat fee for the service and you will bill the patient for 88361x3. The other side is that you can contract for the other hospital to do the test, bill the patient and your hospital pays no fee but misses out on some of the compensation.
