I am working with a GI practice, and the physician will do a 43235, and then a 43248. My understanding is that the 43248 includes the 43235. Can someone that does GI coding please confirm or deny that. Thanks

You are correct. 43235 is included in 43248, and not separately billable. This information can be found in the NCCI Edits. Those edits tell you if procedures can be billed together, or if they are bundled into a more extensive procedure.
