Conventional Cervical Slide, Screened Twice

New Jersey rates for HCPCS 88153

Laboratory examination of a cervical screening (Pap) sample smeared directly onto a glass slide, in which a trained technologist reviews it and it is then reviewed a second time under a pathologist's supervision. The second look lowers the chance that a small number of abnormal cells is missed.
