I am not sure on which CPT codes to choose for the following procedure, please help!
I am leaning towards 57461 & 57505 but not sure if these are correct.
Procedure: LEEP
The procedure, its risks and goals as well as complications were discussed with the patient. She agreed to proceed. She was placed in the dorsal lithotomy position and a coated speculum inserted into the vagina. The cervix was exposed. A preliminary colposcopy exam was performed using a dilute solution of acetic acid, Lugol's solution was placed on the cervix. The cervix was injected with a solution of 1% Lidocaine with 1:200,000 epinephrine. Following this, a LEEP of the cervix was carried out in 1 pass. A post leep ECC was performed. The bed of the LEEP was treated with electrocautery and Monsel's solution. The instruments were removed.
Thank You
