Laboratory pricing note

Clinical laboratory tests like 89291 are generally reimbursed under the Medicare Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule (CLFS), which sets a national limitation amount per test rather than RVU-based PFS pricing. Bill the test on a CMS-1500/837P with the ordering diagnosis; payment follows the CLFS amount for the date of service.
