Patient came in had multiple polyps removed by snare and biopsy throughout the colon. Doctor is coding 45390, 45385 w/59 modifier, and 45380 w/59 modifier, however researching 45390 CMS is not accepting for physician charges. How do I go about coding this? I researched and 45390 is in the cross walk of 45378 and 44799, please advise this coding for new CPT code.
 
One polyp was removed with a saline injection lift using hot snare.
Another polyp he removed only by snare, then removed three other separate polyps using cold forceps.
