PCR Nail Testing Protocol for Podiatrists, Primary Care and Family Practices

Nail fungus is the #1 condition overlooked by primary care and internal medicine physicians

Statistically most primary care practices will see anywhere from 5 to 7 patients per day with this common complaint and most patients are never diagnosed and treated because no one brings up the subject, for doctors it’s out of sight out of mind and for the patient it’s an embarrassment so most just live with it

Reimburses provider for taking the nail samples of patients with a suspected situation like Fungus, Yeast or possibly Cancer

This overlooked revenue uses a long-established code CPT 11755 which provides a reimbursement of $130.00 to $180.00 payment to doctors for 1 or 2 nail samples from 1 foot and sending them off to the lab for testing

Nail Fungal Infection Test

 

Onychomycosis is a common disease of the nail. It is the cause of roughly 50% nail deformities and affects approximately 25% of people living in the USA. Laboratory testing is important to aid in identifying the pathology of the nail deformation to determine a proper treatment plan.

Since conditions of psoriasis and malignant melanoma can mimic the appearance of fungal infections it is very important to quickly and accurately diagnose conditions to treat them efficiently and effectively.

Get quick, accurate results with just one clipping in 48 hours or less – providing healthcare professionals the information they need for optimal patient outcomes at 99% accuracy.

This test needs just a small toenail clipping containing suspected fungus or discoloration and we will deliver an actionable report in 1-2 days

The billing uses a long-established code CPT 11755 which provides a reimbursement of $130.00 to $180.00 payment to doctors for 1 or 2 nail clipping samples from 1 foot and sending them off to the lab for testing
