Patient had a LAVH, however Cervix was also delivered vaginally. Normally I would only code the 58550 (as the total weight was under 250 g), however the more I think about it, I see that the removal of the Cervix is included in the procedure for a Total Hysterectomy but not the LAVH. I feel that 58550 (LAVH) is more appropriate for this procedure due to the vaginal delivery, however was wondering what your thoughts would be about a 22 mod to indicate the additional work for the Cervix.
Thanks!
Thanks!
