GYN exam with or/without PAP

We are an OB/GYN office. We get patients who have had their yearly physical exam from their PCP but they come to us for their breast and pelvic exam and their pap. What is the best way to code/bill these visits so we will get paid?

code it

v72.31 and 9939x. That is what you are doing. Payment does not determine what you code, it is what you do that determines the code. Hopefully the other doctor codes a V70.0. And payment will depend on two things- benefits for preventive care and the patient's willingness to fulfill their obligation to you to actually paying the bill.
