anyone know about j codes?

[saraandmichael]

specifically, where in the fucking fuck i can look them up?

i hate insurance.

As in procedure codes?

[saraandmichael]

yes. i need to know j codes for specific labs that are being ordered, but am having a hard time finding them.

The office should be able to give them to you, shouldn't they? The last time I had to provide lab codes to my insurance, their billing office had them.

I think I've done this. Call the lab that you go to (I use labcorp, for example) and ask them for the code. They should be able to tell you what it is. You could also try the company that processes the test and ask them. I had to get genetic testing done and I called the company that did the actual testing and they knew the codes.

Findacode.com?

sent from my thank you Easter Bunny BOCK BOCK!!!

[saraandmichael]

yes, the hemo nurse could tell me but she's out of the office until tomorrow (i tried calling a little while ago) and i was just trying to shoot an email out to the dolt that is fucking worthless at bcbs so that she can "work on it" first thing tomorrow morning.

i have been dealing with this dumb shit for a month and just want my kid to get his fucking blood drawn so that we can adjust his meds without it costing me $300 oop.

i tried this, but there are several codes with the same name. and i can't see the full description unless i pay.

I was hoping to use one of the sites we use at work but I can't find anything that doesn't require a login/password and I don't have that at home. Sorry

Can you post the code? I have an ICD-9 and some other reference book on my shelf

[oregonpachey]

I have access to a system with all the J codes. Can you post what you want? Or PM me?

[ginger]

Ugh. Yeah, I think you might have to wait for his nurse since it's already almost 7PM.

The billing office could tell you, but they'll be closed.

Jerks. Can you request a new BCBS advocate? I'm not sure how that works.

[ginger]

Okay seriously, you guys are awesome.

I hope they can find you what you need sara!

What's the test? I just googled j code or procedure code for thyroid test and found it.

i did this, too, but all i could find was something that was specific to an outpatient lab (all numeric and shit) and i got all frustrated and decided to post here.

[midnightmare81]

What is the test for? If you wanna PM me that's fine. I've got my ICD-9, ICD-10, and CPT books sitting near by...
