Abstract With this study, we aim to summarize and assess the activity and performance of the Cytogenetic sector of the Laboratory of Medical Genetics—Varna, regarding the conventional cytogenetic analysis of bone marrow samples from patients with (onco)hematological diagnoses. Another purpose is to evaluate the tendencies noticed over a period of eleven years to draw conclusions and share our experience. We have performed the analysis with the G-banding technique on 2653 samples from patients of age 0–93 yr by the current European recommendations and the International System for Human Cytogenomic Nomenclature. The greater part of these samples (90.9%) was with an indication of a hematological malignancy, most commonly Acute myeloid leukemia, Myelodysplastic syndrome, Acute lymphoid leukemia, Chronic myeloid leukemia, and Multiple myeloma. Analysis was successful in 2215 (83.5%)—from those normal karyotypes were found in 1492 (67.4%) and pathology in 723 (32.6%). Regarding the latter, the most common were complex karyotypes (30.6%), Philadelphian chromosome (21.3%), trisomy 8 (5.9%), and deletion in the long arm of chromosome 5 (4.3%). Cytogenetic analysis is a method with great impact on the evaluation of many hematological malignancies and for this reason, it remains an essential part of routine assessment of these diseases. The disadvantages of it mainly in the field of oncohematological diseases, recognized by the scientific society and confirmed in our own experience, suggest a need for an additional genetic method to overcome these limitations.

Top CPT Codes And Modifiers For Pathology Medical Billing

Just as any other medical specialty, Pathology too, needs accurate documentation for generating any patient’s medical report. For a pathologist, when taking care of pathology billing and coding, it’s absolutely important to acquire prompt and accurate pathology reports in order to ensure successful reimbursements.

Whether it’s a clinical lab, a physician office lab or even an independent lab, each of these will have different needs and ways to deal with issues related to patient documentation, payer types, or set of procedures. Also, billing for pathology involves a huge variety of different code types and it’s essential for pathologists to be fluent in it while staying updated with the periodic updates.

What Is CPT®?

Pathologists will need to accurately use CPT® which is the medical code set for physicians and health care professionals. Current Procedural Terminology, commonly known as CPT® acts as a uniform language for coding billing medical services and procedures for reimbursements in order to streamline reporting, increase accuracy and efficiency. Each CPT® code represents a written description of a service or procedure that eliminates the need to write a detailed interpretation of what was rendered to a patient. CPT® codes were created by the American Medical Association (AMA) in 1996 to standardize the reporting of medical, surgical, and diagnostic offerings and procedures.

Considering the various services and procedures, the AMA has organized CPT® codes into three types:

CPT® Category I

CPT® Category II

CPT® Category III

Codes used in Pathology Billing and Coding:

CPT codes (dermatologists)- 88300 to 88332

Level III surgical pathology (abscess, anus, hematoma, etc.)- 88304

Level IV surgical pathology or microscopic examination (lip, skin tongue, etc)- 88305

CPT New Codes:

Obstetric panel (including HIV testing) – 80081

Molecular Pathology Procedures – Gene Specific and Genome procedures- 81170, 81162, 81218, 81219, 81272, 81273, 81276, 81311, 81314.

Cytogenomic microarray analyses- 81228, 81229, 81405, 81406

Long QT syndrome gene analyses- 81280, 81282

Genomic Sequencing Procedures and other Molecular Multianalyte Assays- 81412, 81432, 81433, 81434, 81437, 81438, 81442

Multianalyte Assays with MAAAs- 81490, 81493, 81525, 81528, 81535, +81536, 81538, 81540, 81545, 81595, 0009M, 0010M

Immunofluorescence Stains- +88350

CPT Revised Codes:

Molecular Pathology- 81210, 81275, 81355, 81401, 81402, 81403, 81404, 81405, 81406

Genomic Sequencing Procedures and other Molecular Multianalyte Assays- 81435, 81436, 81445, 81450, 81455

Surgical Pathology- 88346

What is a Modifier?

Modifiers help alter a service, method, or item for compensation purposes in specific instances. To provide greater specificity for the treatment or process given, modifiers may add information or amend the description in accordance with physician documentation. The use of an appropriate modifier to respond to reimbursement can prove to be a success.

New Tools for Hop Cytogenomics: Identification of Tandem Repeat Families from Long-Read Sequences of Humulus lupulus

Hop (Humulus lupulus L.) is known for its use as a bittering agent in beer and has a rich history of cultivation, beginning in Europe and now spanning the globe. There are five wild varieties worldwide, which may have been introgressed with cultivated varieties. As a dioecious species, its obligate outcrossing, non-Mendelian inheritance, and genomic structural variability have confounded directed breeding efforts. Consequently, understanding genome evolution in Humulus represents a considerable challenge, requiring additional resources, including integrated genome maps. In order to facilitate cytogenetic investigations into the transmission genetics of hop, we report here the identification and characterization of 17 new and distinct tandem repeat sequence families. A tandem repeat discovery pipeline was developed using k-mer filtering and dot plot analysis of PacBio long-read sequences from the hop cultivar Apollo. We produced oligonucleotide FISH probes from conserved regions of HuluTR120 and HulTR225 and demonstrated their utility to stain meiotic chromosomes from wild hop, var. neomexicanus. The HuluTR225 FISH probe hybridized to several loci per nucleus and exhibited irregular, non-Mendelian transmission in male meiocytes of wild hop. Collectively, these tandem repeat sequence families not only represent unique and valuable new cytogenetic reagents but also have the capacity to inform genome assembly efforts and support comparative genomic analyses. http://dlvr.it/RPLjtB
