[Guest guest]

Our tx surgeon procured a pancreas for an outside OPO and used the pancreas for our own patient at our facility. Surgeon billed tx center for procurement fees using CPT code 48550 (Donor Pacreatectomy).

This code is coming up as $0.00 reimbursement. How do I know the rate to pay the surgeon?
