hsCRP testing
What are some codes that can be used for hsCRP testing?
hsCRP
Some commercial insurers never cover it, others always cover it. Medicare considers it medically necessary for 'at risk" patients.
From the medical perspective your best chance of success would be to link to 272.x - hyperlipidemia series.
Just to add a medical note, the data on using crp is still not convincing. Most studies were done by the doctor who owns the patent on the test so he has an interest in getting good results. I use it for the patient with mildly high cholesterol who needs convincing that a cholesterol medication will benefit them.
