Hello,
I am new to anesthesia coding and need to know how to code when a patient has a C-section and tubal at the same session. I have a denial from a payer as we used the sterilization ICD10 code and they want the matching CPT code.

I see that 01961 says cesarean delivery only. Do we bill both 01961 for the C-section and also 00851 for the tubal?

Thank you!
