Hello,

What CPT codes would be used for an "Operative Laparoscopy with Lysis of Adhesions and tubal dye studies?"

Thank you in advance.
 
Lysis of Adhesions: Unable to find a definitive answer, we sent this out to a third party coding/audit firm. The answer we received is that lysis of adhesions is included in any laproscopic procedure, some adhesions are expected. If there are extensive adhesions, the surgeon must clearly document the extent and the additional time involved.

Hysterosalpingography 74740 sounds like your procedure code.
