Influenza A&B QuickVue
Rep told my Doc today that we should be billing
If results for both Influenza A and Influenza B are ordered by practitioner
For Influenza A use: 87804QW**
For Influenza B use: 87804QW**, -59
I have only been billing one single code.
Is this kosher??

Check your test
Our rapid Flu test gives one line if either A or B is positive. So we bill bill only one unit. Be sure your test has two positive lines- one for A and one for B.
