HELP !!!
I code for a Urologist, who will go in before the General Surgeon and place a stent to "mark" the ureter, so that it does not get cut accidentally. This is often done when the patient is diagnosed with diverticulitis.
No, there is no other diagnosis that can be used; I have reviewed and gleaned other physician's notes including the surgeon.
Is there a "V" code?
I am open to all advice.
Thanks to all!
