Patient presents for a surveillance colonoscopy to the general surgeon. Dr does a full exam, sounds like a pre op, but does not state that it is a pre op., and does not state that he referred pt. to another provider for clearance. Do I assume and code as a pre op.

as always,
thanks for any answers
