Wiki Anesthesia for bladder tumor fulguration

[kladg@sbcglobal.net]

I'm trying to code anesthesia for a urethrocystoscopy for fulguration of a bladder tumor. The code 00910 is for transurethral procedures, not otherwise specified, but 00912 is for transurethral resection of a bladder tumor. Fulguration is Not resection. I can't seem to find the appropriate code. Does someone have some info on this matter?

I found an older 2010 ASA Crosswalk and 52214 comes up as 00910. 52224-52240 crosswalk to 00912
