Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What G0141 covers

G0141 covers laboratory screening of a cervical or vaginal cytology specimen using automated screening followed by manual rescreening, with physician interpretation. It is used for Pap screening workflows in which those steps are part of the service. Cytotechnologists typically perform the screening and rescreening, with a pathologist or other qualified physician providing the interpretation. The specimen may be collected in a physician’s office or another clinical setting and processed by a cytology laboratory.

Select G0141 when the documented workflow includes automated screening, manual rescreening, and physician interpretation; it is not a code for specimen collection alone. Documentation should identify the cervical or vaginal specimen and support the screening purpose and review steps performed. Report the workflow as one cytology service rather than separately reporting its automated screening, manual rescreening, and interpretation stages.
