COVID-19 Neutralizing Antibody Test

Maryland rates for HCPCS 0226U

Checks whether a person's blood contains antibodies able to block SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, from latching onto human cells. It uses a laboratory stand-in for that blocking step rather than simply detecting that antibodies are present.
