Hi all - if someone can help with this scenario that would be great! Surgeon performs a diagnostic colonoscpopy on a Medicare patient who has dx of rectal bleeding. During the colonoscopy he finds internal prolapsable hemorrhoids and removes them by cauterization. How would you code this? Can both the colonoscopy and the destruction be coded - 45378 and 46930 - or would I code a colonoscopy with lesion removal - 45383?
Your help is greatly appreciated!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
