Michele:
Well, that clears it up. Isn't it amazing how much room for interpretation there is out there in the world of billing.
Glad you were able to find out.

We do billing for a hospital based pathologist and we use the POS 11-for doctors office. We have never had a problem and we have been doing the billing for a very long time now.

I also spoke to Joan Logue who will be presenting on this subject in Dec at Orlando. She also stated the correct POS would be 22. Now I also have Dennis Padget (in a email) stating that it is long standing convential wisdom to use the POS were the patient is. That is fine if you are considered a independent lab and get paid on a different fee schedule. But this is just my interpretation. Please see the below website. I welcome feed back as I have been working on this for a couple of months now.
