Profee Coding- When to code labs such as 83655 and 85018??

I have a silly question… I’m doubting myself, I know.

When are labs coded. For example, in profee coding for a well child visit, would you code 83655 and 85018 if they are done? I’m not talking about actual blood draws, but the actual labs performed on blood samples. I thought labs were only coded with a certain modifier and only if they were sent to outside facility (so the provider gets paid for transportation charges). Otherwise if they were performed by an internal lab, I thought the provider skipped coding them and the internal lab coded them? Can someone please summarize when to code labs for me? For profee and other kinds of coding too? Thanks!!

ProFee vs Hospital diagnostic coding

I need some help! I need to find a reference, one way or the other, that supports/does not support the ability of a professional coder to use the entire chart when coding TODAYs visit.

I’ve been trying to explain why this is not how things work. If an auditor pulls the chart for review for the visit on 3/3/17, what is released is the documentation from 3/3/17. So if a diagnosis is coded on that visit that is not documented on that visit…. guess what..

I am a former Compliance Auditor under a CIA (Corporate Integrity Agreement) who now is on the facility side. When talking to my professional fee counter parts, they are told they can use the whole chart to code from.. (?) On the facility side we are confined to the account/stay that we are currently coding.

If anyone can provide reference either way as to the professional fee side, I’d appreciate the help. I’ve been looking under all the CMS literature but have been unsuccessful. Thanks in advance!
