Synopsis

The Endocrine and Metabolic Testing Manual has been put together by a team of endocrinologists from the Metabolic Unit at Wilford Hall Medical Center (WHMC). Their main purpose is to provide a succinct, practical guide to the patient care physician who needs to make an informed endocrine diagnosis using standard methods and the most cost-effective procedures. The manual includes the latest CPT codes and indicates those in which direct physician involvement is particularly important. There is also a comprehensive listing of tests and cost-effective, standardized testing methods. The testing of all endocrine organ systems, diabetes-related problems, renal, lipoprotein disorders, and physical fitness is addressed and helpful algorithms are presented. The manual offers a perspective on the most useful of a wide variety of tests aimed at making an endocrine diagnosis. Health care planners are sure to appreciate the estimate of supply costs useful for reimbursement of this aspect of testing.
