I have a physician who is changing "feeding tube" in his office setting. That is the only thing the physician is doing during the visit. This is his note "Changed g-tube in the office, 18frx 1.7 cm bard button, ref 000282, Lot HUWI1417"
I found CPT code 43760 (Change of gastrostomy rube, percutaneous, without imaging or endoscopic guidance). Can this code be billed out when performed in an office setting or should he be billing an E/M?

Any answers are questions are greatly appreciated!!! :confused:
 
We bill that code in the office and we don't generally charge an E&M unless they came in for something unrelated as well.
