Heart Transplant Rejection Blood Test

Alaska rates for HCPCS 81595

A blood test for people living with a transplanted heart that measures how active a set of genes is in immune cells and turns the pattern into a score showing how likely the body is to be rejecting the organ. A reassuring score can spare the patient a biopsy of the heart muscle, which requires threading a catheter into the heart. It is used for routine monitoring rather than for diagnosing a rejection episode already underway.
