I am new to GI coding pt is having a colonoscopy
Indications: Personal Hx of Malignant Rectal Neoplasm s/p LAR, hx of elevated CEA. Pt last surveillance was in 2021 with adenomas and recommended recall was 3 years.
Pt recently had elevated CEA levels which is why our doctor ordered procedure to be done before the 3 years.
Findings: Entire colon was normal, patent end to end Colo-rectal anastamosis with healthy mucosa
no specimens collected. Insurance is Medicare.
I know medicare pays for a G0105 every 2 years. Could I use G0105 in this case being that it has been just over 2 years and she has a hx of malignant neoplasm? or would it be better to bill 45378
any advice is helpful! thank you!
