Anaerobe Suscep Battery (Bill Only)
Use
This test, Anaerobe Suscep Battery, is intended for billing purposes only and is not an orderable test itself. It serves as a placeholder for billing when anaerobic susceptibility testing is required as part of a larger diagnostic workflow. Anaerobic bacteria are often involved in infections where oxygen is limited, making susceptibility testing essential for determining appropriate antimicrobial therapy.

Limitations
As a billing-only test, Anaerobe Suscep Battery does not produce immediate diagnostic results and should not be ordered separately. It may be used in conjunction with other tests that require susceptibility profiling of anaerobic bacteria. Its value lies in facilitating billing for these specific services when applied by a laboratory consistent with applicable coding guidelines.
