Just wondering if someone would be able to help with
coding the following- I also put this out on the Gen.Sx
forum but no answer to date: Replacement of jejunostomy tube (Not under fluro guidance) I was looking at CPT 43760 also needed ICD9: Displaced jejunostomy tube TIA

Hi,
I would use the 43760 for the replacement. The Diagnosis I would use is V55.1 which is removal or replacement of g-tube. You could also use 569.60 or 569.62 depending on the reason for the tube change.

Hope this helps:):):)

Thanks so much for your help - They were the codes I was
leaning towards, sometimes I just overthink or lack confidence
