[Histonet] RE: New CPT Codes for IHC

[Weems, Joyce K.]

For non-Medicare it is per block - CPT code 88342.

For Medicare - per specimen. G0461 for the first antibody and G0462 for each additional different ab.

  Hi,
        I hope you guys are doing well. Please I have a question about billing the IHC. My question is do we bill by the number of antibodies or blocks?

 Thanks,
