Skin, Hair, Or Nail Sample Exam For Fungus Or Mites

Delaware rates for HCPCS 87220

A small sample of skin, hair, or nail is treated with a special solution and examined directly under a microscope to look for fungal infection or tiny parasites such as scabies mites. Results are typically available quickly since the sample is examined right away rather than grown in a culture over several days.
