HOW DO I REPORT DIAGNOSTIC EVENTS SUCH AS THE IDENTIFICATION OF PESTS AND DISEASES, AND TESTING OF SOIL SAMPLES?
Count it as an office consultation if the diagnostic service is performed in your laboratory and as a field consultation if the diagnosis takes place at the client’s location. Simply sending a sample to another site is not an office consultation. To be counted as an office or field consultation, a diagnostic service should provide educational information in additional to the factual data.
