I am new to OB/GYN coding and need some help. I have a patient today who came in for an office visit due to postmenopausal bleeding. She was 89 y/o. Our doc removed her pessary which was in place to do his exam and then cleaned the pessary before reinsertion. How do I bill for this? He marked off 99213 & A4561 on the super bill.
Her noted diagnosis were vaginitis and postmenopausal bleeding (FYI), but I am kind of confused with why he marked off the A4561 if he didnt supply a new one?? One of the MA's stated we can bill for the cleaning, but I cant find any information on how to bill that out.![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
