GI doc is wondering....when a malignant polyp is removed from the colon endoscopically either by biopsy or snare, and the pathologist has to report margins based off of the polyp, which CPT code should we use for pathology? 88305 or 88307? Remember it is just the polyp not a colon resection. Also what about an Endoscopic Mucosal Resection? 88305 or 88307 for pathology?
Thank you for your help!
