Hello,
Please help with the following PX:
The physician did a diagnostic Lap with Graham's patch( a surgical techinque that is used to close duodenal perforatios. A piece of omentum is used to cover the perforation). DX: peritonitis secondary to anastomitic leak
The patient just had bariatric surgery 24 hours prior. The only code I found was 49329 unlisted.
49329-78![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
1.997.4![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
2.567.9
Is any of those codes correct?
Thanks!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
