Can we report 36415 for finger sticks or draw lines? What are the status indicators for this code in 2024?
Code 36415 applies to venipuncture only. It is not a valid code for finger sticks or line draws. Note that again for 2024, code 36415 has been assigned to status indicator (SI) “Q4,” meaning that will be conditionally packaged if billed on the same claim as an HCPCS code assigned a published status indicator “J1,” “J2,” “S,” “T,” “V,” “Q1,” “Q2,” or “Q3.”
