I was wondering if anyone knew if Wellmark BCBS considers unspecified constipation, 564.00, a medically necessary diagnosis for a colonoscopy (45378)? Since they usually follow Medicare, and our LCD here in Iowa doesn't have 564.00 as a payable diagnosis, I was wondering if anybody has any idea if BCBS would cover this? I did go onto their website but could not find any policy regarding colonoscopies. Thanks!
