CODING FOR DRUG SCREENS
We just started doing drug screens for a pain clinic for the purpose of drug monitoring. We do the collection of urine and send out to a lab, but we are the medical review officer. I'm using the specific diagnosis provided by the pain clinic and the code V58.83. The procedure code I use is 80100. Do I need to use a modifier such as 90 or doesn't Medicare pay for this procedure no matter what? Any help is appreciated.
