Limited Pregnancy Ultrasound

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 76815

A quick, focused ultrasound during pregnancy used to check on a specific concern rather than perform a full evaluation, such as confirming the baby's heartbeat, position, or the amount of amniotic fluid. It is shorter and narrower in scope than a complete pregnancy ultrasound and is often used for a follow-up look between full exams. It does not replace a full anatomy scan.
