Volume Reduction Of Collected Stem Cells

Georgia rates for HCPCS 38214

A processing step performed on blood-forming stem cells collected for a transplant. Excess fluid is removed from the collection so that the cells are concentrated into a smaller volume before storage or infusion. Reducing the volume makes the cells easier to freeze and lowers the amount of preservative the patient receives.
