Swab Collection
There is no specific code for swabbing the enduring for COVID-19. Swab collection is included in E/M service. However, if collected in the office and transported to the laboratory, CPT code 99000 can be billed: 99000: Handling and/or conveyance of specimen for transfer from office to a laboratory. IF there is no E&M (only doing the nasal swab) the 99211 would probably be the most appropriate.
