Wiki what cpt is assigned for flexible bronchosocpy with cryobiopsy

[dkaz1]

Hi there

This is a new one for me--a flexible bronchoscopy with transbronchial and endobronchial and cryobiopsy all of the Left upper lobe--

Can anyone suggest a cpt code for the cryobiopsy or is it bundled into Cpt 31628?

Any assistance is appreicated

Thank you in advance

31628 is a Bronchoscopy with Biopsy. I assume whatever method to do the biopsy would be included whether its snare, cryo,. or any other clever way they invent to grab tissue samples.

Thanks for replying--I'm thinking the same way too!
