Coverage indications
CMS has determined that ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes 156.0, Malignant neoplasm of the gallbladder and 156.2, Malignant neoplasm of the Ampulla of Vater, flow from the existing narrative for conditions for which tumor antigen by immunoassay CA 19-9 is reasonable and necessary. We intend to modify the list of “ICD-9-CM Codes Covered by Medicare” in the NCD for tumor antigen by immunoassay CA 19-9 to include these codes.
Codes in this policy
Code numbers and each code’s status as the policy records it. CPT code descriptions are left out of this page, as are the passages that cite CPT codes; the official document has them.
Backwork has no codes on record for this policy. Check the source.
