Clinical Significance

Automated Pap with Age-Based Screening with CT/NG, Trichomonas - This new test code will perform like test code 91384 but will always add Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG), and Trichomonas vaginalis ("trich" or TV) testing to the Pap. Specifically, testing will occur as follows:

• Patients aged 21-24: Patients will receive Image-guided Pap and, when the result is ASC-US, a high-risk HPV mRNA test will be performed. Additionally, CT/NG and TV will be performed.
• Patients aged 25-29: Patients will receive Image-guided Pap and, when the ...
