CPT code 87002, which refers to the culture of bacteria from a specimen, is typically covered by Medicare when medically necessary and performed in accordance with applicable guidelines. However, coverage can depend on specific circumstances, such as the patient's condition and the reason for the test. It's important for providers to check with Medicare or review their local coverage determinations for any specific requirements or limitations.
