If a Medicare patient has a colonoscopy with the reason for exam being V12.72 and the findings are angioestasia (569.84) and internal hemorrhoids (455.0) would you still use G0105 or 45378?
To my knowledge, you only use the G code if there are no findings. If the pt came in as a screening though, you would put the V code as a dx code in the first slot to show it was a screening that converted.
example:
pt comes in for a high risk screening might look like this: CPT G0105
DX V12.72
pt comes in for a high risk screening but there are findings: CPT 45380
DX1 V76.51
DX2 211.3
of course I just put in generic numbers, but thats the gist of it.
