[Histonet] Billing for Prostate Biopsies

[Lester Raff MD]

Each separately submitted jar with a specified location is coded as
88305, regardless of the number of cores in the jar. An exception is for
"saturation" biopsies (ultrasound guided template needle biopsies) that
are coded using 4 specific G codes, depending on total number of cores.
