Am I correct that if the type of polyp is not stated as adenamtous for a "surveillance colonoscopy", then it is coded as a regular screening? Would you code the V12.72 in addition to the V76.51 or just the V76.51? The note simply states "This 59-year-old gentleman is referred for surveillance colonoscopy after having polyps removed several years ago."

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
