Wiki DL with esophageal dilation

[sksmith31]

Patient had a DL with esophagela dilation. Op note states it only viewed upper esophagus. Would this be coded 43220 with mod-52 since the GE junction was not visualized? Any help is appreciated.

Have you looked at 31528? If the original intent was direct laryngoscopy with dilation.
Hope this helps.
