OVA1 or ROMA for Ovarian Cancer Screening

October 25, 2012

OVA1 has been FDA cleared for use in women who meet specific criteria. OVA1 is not intended to be a screening test or to determine whether a patient should proceed to surgery.  It can, however, be used as a tool by the patient’s primary physician to decide if the referral for treatment of a mass should go to a gynecologist or a gyn-oncologist. Submit CPT code 84999 for OVA 1 and ROMA testing for ovarian cancer.  CGS will review the supporting documentation for individual claims to determine if the medical need is established.
