What 80328 covers
Code 80328 represents definitive laboratory analysis of three or more anabolic steroid analytes. It is the higher-count code in the anabolic-steroid testing pair: 80327 describes testing one or two analytes, while 80328 applies at three or more. A clinical laboratory reports the code for the definitive testing performed. The count distinguishes these codes within the anabolic-steroid category; it is not a count of specimens.
Medicare assigns status I to 80328, so the code is not valid for Medicare; Medicare uses a different code to report and pay for this service. Do not submit 80328 to Medicare as the service code. The three-or-more designation identifies the number of anabolic steroid analytes tested. The distinction from 80327 is based on analyte count, not on a different steroid category.
