Hello,
I am not sure what is the appropriate code for:

Colon resection, takedown of colostomy with low anterior anastomosis. Is this a reversal of a Hartman type PX?) :cool: I am thinking to use code 44625 or 44626. Thanks!:)
 
Yes you are right on it, it is a reversal of a Hartman type procedure. 44626 would be the correct code.
