    Wiki Correct coding for annual exam with Pap and pelvic by a family medicine physician

    Our office is having an issue with reimbursement for Q0091. I thought DX code Z12.4 was a medically necessary code but it continues to get denied stating it is inclusive of another service. I have added the -25 to the Wellness Visit or E&M but I still have not luck. Any advise?

    Thank you very much for the information. This is what I was thinking also but wanted to confirm. This is just one more reason why I do not like or trust billing companies. They typically do not have a coder on staff and bill just because something will pay.... well that does not make it right!
