Hi everyone! Please help with the following? Doc performs a diagnostic laparoscopy and encounters bowel problems adhesions. He now does decompresses and does a laparotomy, lysis of adhesions and an incidental appendectomy (Path:normal appendix). Would I code the lysis of adhesions?
Thanks in advance for helping with this? In addition he did a biopsy of a messenteric nodule - I don't think I can bill this as stated in the CPT book - separate procedure am I correct?
