| Procedure | Volume | Avg. paid | Avg. submitted |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tissue staining for diagnosis, additional An extra laboratory procedure to apply special stains to tissue slides for detailed examination. |
905 | $21 | $143 |
| Tissue pathology examination, moderate complexity A laboratory test where a pathologist examines tissue samples under a microscope to analyze cellular details. This intermediate complexity procedure involves specialized techniques to identify abnormalities in the tissue. |
734 | $27 | $206 |
| Serum protein measurement A blood test that measures the total amount of protein in the serum. It helps evaluate overall health and nutritional status. |
612 | $13 | $56 |

257 | $18 | $64 |
| Tissue staining for diagnosis, initial A laboratory test where special stains are applied to tissue slides to help examine the cells and identify specific characteristics. |
213 | $26 | $143 |
| Immunologic analysis of body fluid with concentration A laboratory test that uses immunologic techniques to analyze a body fluid sample after it has been concentrated. |
101 | $13 | $56 |
| Moderately high complexity pathology tissue examination A laboratory test where a pathologist examines tissue samples under a microscope to analyze cellular details. This specific level of complexity involves a moderate to high degree of technical skill and interpretation. |
94 | $61 | $332 |
| Tissue preparation to remove calcium A laboratory procedure that removes calcium from a tissue sample to prepare it for microscopic examination. |
86 | $9 | $40 |
| Flow cytometry DNA or cell analysis, 9-15 markers A laboratory test that uses a laser to analyze cells or DNA using 9 to 15 different markers. This technique helps identify and characterize specific cell types or genetic material. |
80 | $46 | $271 |
| Protein measurement in body fluid A laboratory test that measures the amount of protein present in a sample of body fluid. |
77 | $13 | $56 |
| Special tissue stain and interpretation A laboratory test using special stains to examine tissue samples, including the pathologist's review and written report of the findings. |
77 | $9 | $64 |
| Flow cytometry, 16 or more markers A laboratory test that uses lasers to analyze cells or DNA using 16 or more different markers. This technique helps identify and characterize specific cell types based on their physical and chemical properties. |
64 | $63 | $354 |
| Pathology tissue examination, moderate complexity A laboratory test where a pathologist examines tissue samples under a microscope to identify abnormalities. This specific level indicates a moderate degree of complexity in the analysis. |
61 | $8 | $137 |
| Bone marrow smear interpretation A laboratory review of a bone marrow sample slide to examine cell structure and identify abnormalities. |
56 | $36 | $206 |

35 | $30 | $165 |
| Special stain test for organisms A laboratory test using special stains on tissue slides to identify microorganisms. The process includes the technical preparation of the slides and a professional interpretation of the results. |
26 | $20 | $81 |
| Limited pathology tissue examination A microscopic examination of tissue samples to identify abnormalities. This limited exam focuses on specific aspects of the tissue rather than a comprehensive analysis. |
22 | $3 | $46 |
| Flow cytometry, 2-8 markers A laboratory test that uses lasers to analyze cells or DNA using 2 to 8 specific markers. This technique helps identify and characterize cells based on their physical and chemical properties. |
13 | $27 | $220 |
| High complexity pathology tissue examination A laboratory test where a pathologist examines tissue samples under a microscope using advanced techniques to analyze cellular details. |
13 | $100 | $475 |
