There's been an increase in our denials for 88342s and 88341s from CMS, which they explained was due to our report not documenting the "why" of different stains performed on different specimens. We currently use language like "An immunostain for p63 is performed on blocks G-1, H-1 and K-1. The results support the above diagnoses." or "Single lymph node negative for tumor by H&E and immunostain for keratin."
Any advice as to how we can better document our rationale?
