I am having trouble finding an appropriate cpt code for Esophagoscopy with Balloon Dilation and Botox Injection. I almost think it should be unlisted 43499. Doctors note says cricopharyngeal dilation and chemodenervation. Has anyone coded this before.

Thank you
 
I have coded these before. Can you paste a copy of the body of the operative note (procedure detail) in a post for me to look at?
Please do NOT post the patient name, date of birth, medical record number, or any other identifying information.

Or you can answer these questions:

1. What kind of esophagoscope was used, rigid or flexible?
2. Was the balloon dilation less than 30 mm in diameter?


Thanks!
