JC Virus Antibody Blood Test

Arkansas rates for HCPCS 86711

A blood test that looks for antibodies to the JC virus, a very common virus that most people carry harmlessly. In someone whose immune system is suppressed that virus can cause a rare and serious brain infection, so knowing whether a person has been exposed to it matters. It is often checked before and during treatment with certain immune-suppressing medicines.
