Our certified toxicology billing specialists manage everything from test coding and claim submission to appeals, reagent costing, and performance reporting. We ensure your toxicology services are billed cleanly, compliantly, and profitably.
Why Toxicology Billing Is One of the Most Challenging Lab Domains
Toxicology testing is tightly regulated and heavily audited. Some of the top challenges include:
Presumptive vs Definitive testing coding complexity: Codes 80305–80307 for presumptive vs 80320–80377 or CMS codes G0480–G0483 for definitive testing. CMSNNI
Medical necessity & documentation scrutiny: Payers demand strong justification, ordering provider intent, signature, and lab results. Anthem
Methodology differentiation: Whether testing used immunoassay, chromatography, mass spectrometry affects CPT selection. CMS
Bundling and payer edits: Some payers bundle tests or disallow multiple definitive panels in one day, requiring modifiers (e.g., XE, XU) and unbundling knowledge. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services+1
Audit risk and reagent cost tracking: Toxicology labs must track supply usage, cost per reagent, and often face audits for overbilling or misallocation.
Because of these pressures, general lab billing services usually underperform in toxicology. You need a partner with deep domain expertise.
