Gardnerella Genetic Test, Amount Measured

Delaware rates for HCPCS 87512

A laboratory test that measures how much genetic material from Gardnerella, one of the bacteria involved in bacterial vaginosis, is present in a vaginal sample. Measuring the amount rather than simply detecting it helps tell an overgrowth apart from the small numbers that can be present normally. It is used when abnormal discharge or odour suggests the balance of vaginal bacteria has been disturbed.
