I am not sure which code would work best for this procedure.

Exp lap with biopsy of liver

49000 or 49010???

Am I in the correct area???

Please help.
 
+47001

Have you looked at +47001? Does that match your documentation?

This code is used when you have a needle biopsy of the liver done at the time of another open procedure.

Hope that helps.
