Hepatitis B Virus Genetic Detection Test

New York rates for HCPCS 87516

A laboratory test that looks for the genetic material of the hepatitis B virus in a blood sample, copying it many times over so that even small amounts can be found. It shows whether the virus itself is present and active, rather than whether the body has been exposed to it. Results help confirm infection and guide decisions about treatment alongside liver blood tests.
