Anaerobic Bacteria Identification, Additional Testing

New York rates for HCPCS 87076

This laboratory service identifies a specific type of bacteria that grows only in the absence of oxygen, after it has already been isolated from a sample taken from the body. Extra testing steps are used to pin down exactly which anaerobic organism is present, which helps guide antibiotic choice. It is typically performed as a follow-up step after an initial culture shows bacterial growth.
