    When bringing a patient in for a follow up <28 wks for polyhydramnios, would it be sufficient to bill a 76816 for fluid volume w/o fetal measurements or it would have to be billed as an 76815?

    First of all ... sorry for the delay in answering. If you are only checking the fluid volume, you would bill 76815.  If you are also evaluating some of the fetal anatomy, you would bill 76816.
