Wiki Enterotomy

[jlb0807]

Hello All!

My doctor was consulted intraoperatively to repair an enterotomy during a c-section. Unfortuantely, the patient has Family Planning Only Alabama Medicaid. Does anybody know of a diagnosis code or codes for an enterotomy that happened while another doctor was preforming a c-section?

Thanks in advance!

I would list the c-section code, then the dx code for the reason for the enterotomy.
