Pathology Billing

Specialized billing for pathology laboratories and diagnostic interpretation services

Overview

Pathology billing involves technical component charges for specimen processing and staining, professional component charges for physician interpretation, and the complex world of molecular and genetic testing billing. Proper pathology billing requires understanding of specimen versus block versus stain-based coding rules.
