All the codes were replaced in the presumptive drug class screening section, going from five codes to three.
80305 – Drug test(s), presumptive, any number of drug classes, any number of devices or procedures (e.g., immunoassay); capable of being read by direct optical observation only (e.g., dipsticks, cups, cards, cartridges) includes sample validation when performed, per date of service
80306 – read by instrument-assisted, direct optical observation (e.g., dipsticks, cups, cards, cartridges); includes sample validation when performed, per date of service
80307 – Drug test(s), presumptive, any number of drug classes, any number of devices or procedures, by instrument chemistry analyzers (e.g., utilizing immunoassay [e.g., EIA, ELISA, EMIT, FPIA, IA, KIMS, RIA]), chromatography (e.g., GC, HPLC), and mass spectrometry either with or without chromatography, (e.g., DART, DESI, GC-MS, GCMS/MS, LC-MS, LC-MS/MS, LDTD, MALDI, TOF); includes sample validation when performed, per date of service
Report these codes only once regardless of the number of procedures of drugs tested on any date of service.
