Patient had a "kink" in port and subsequently only the port was removed and replaced. Patient has Medicare. Looking at 43771 but I am not totally convinced this is what I want. Thanks for any suggestions!!
 
gastric port only replacement

If the restrictive device is a component, and the port is a component a revision of the port
part of the device could be 43771?
 
43773?

I kind of like 43773 if you take the word component and apply it to the port portion and not the restrictive device portion...if they are each considered an equal "component.:confused::confused:
