What 80326 covers

80326 identifies amphetamine testing in the five-or-more count category. The adjacent amphetamine codes distinguish lower counts: 80324 is labeled for one or two, and 80325 for three or four. These are count distinctions within amphetamine testing, not counts of separate drug classes. Nearby drug-testing codes cover other substance groups, such as anabolic steroids, alcohol biomarkers, and non-opioid analgesics; those categories are not amphetamine codes.

For Medicare, 80326 has status I: it is not valid for Medicare, which uses a different code to report and pay for this service. This status identifies the Medicare reporting code for the service. It does not change the count distinction among the amphetamine codes: 80324 represents one or two, 80325 three or four, and 80326 five or more. Medicare reporting uses a different code rather than 80326.
