MCR and colonscopies

I was told by a fellow biller never to bill MCR for a colon or EGD? I had another tell me as long as you have a qualifying dx it is OK (or use a GZ modifier)? I am new to anes billing and I am still confused on the proper and legal way to bill these tests? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
