I have a provider who does an oral swab to check what medications but does not need to charge for the actual test as this kit is given to them but wants to charge for the swab part of it. Is there a CPT code for just an oral swab?

Billing for cheek swab for Genesight testing in psychiatry
Is there a HCPCS code for just the check swab for GeneSight testing? My OP facility collects the cheek swab and sends it out for processing. Any information/resources are appreciated.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Flu Nasal Swab Test Billing
Hello! We’ve recently purchased the nasal swab rapid flu test that tests for both Influenza A and Influenza B. (One swab; two results)
I’ve done some research and wanted to make sure I am going to be billing correctly. I read that we should bill the procedure (87804) two times since the test gives two results and to use modifier 59 on the second test. Also, I read to use modifier QW since this is a CLIA waived test. Does it matter which modifier to use first? Also, do I need to use the QW modifier on both lines? THANKS, in advance!! 😀

CPT Code for swab collection?
Please advise if you are aware if there is a CPT code for a swab collection, similar to a phlebotomy collection.
