Hello,
Can someone please advise if when a patient sees a provider for a g-tube change should the following ICD-10 codes be reported for proper billing purposes?
G-tube was changed: encounter for attention to g-tube Z43.1 needs to be stated?
Reason G-tube was changed – notes stated that the there was a small split in one of the ports : K94.24 – using this code to indicate “other complications of g-tube”?
Some of our providers code Z93.1 for g-tube status. We work out of a non-facility(clinic) and I believe that, that code is for facility reporting only?
Should K94.24 and Z43.1 be used or K94.24, Z43.1 and Z93.1??
Thanks so much for your help with this.
