Lyme Disease Genetic Detection Test

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 87476

This laboratory test looks for genetic material from the bacterium that causes Lyme disease, using a technique that amplifies small amounts of genetic material so it can be detected. It is typically used alongside or after antibody-based blood testing when there's a need to directly detect the organism rather than the body's immune response to it. Results help support a Lyme disease diagnosis in the appropriate clinical setting.
