I currently work at BCBS and I am on disability for Total Hip Replacement. I had a ua done and they coded it G0431. Can you give me the cpt exact wording for that code. I am familiar with 81000 to 81003 etc, but do not have my cpt book here to read description. Also how does it work when you do a ua in a doctor s office and they send it to a lab to do an intrepreation on it. I received word that it showed up as Meth which I DO NOT DO on any occasion. I do take Amplodipine and took 2 Adderall that particular week because could not concentrate, but normally do not take them anymore. Could any of those constitute the wrong information.
Hi, Adderall and methamphetamine are identical. They will show up the same way. How it is interpreted varies considerably. Some will just show the result without interpretation. Others have someone make sure the results make sense. In your case, they make sense. If the Adderall is NOT PRESCRIBED to you, it isn't any different from if it were methamphetamine. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
