I have a chart, and on the facesheet, nurse's notes and OP Report, the diagnosis is rectal bleeding and screening. Because this bleeding is symptomatic, would I code the rectal bleed as primary, and 45378 for a colonoscopy; or V76.51 as primary, and 569.3 secondary and G0121? This IS a Medicare patient. Thanks!
