Pt is status total colectomy with an ileal pouch that has a stricture. Scope was placed through anus and advanced into ileal pouch up to the stricture. This was then TTS balloon dilated. Biopsies were also obtained. I think 44386 is correct for the biopsies but cannot find a code for the balloon dilation.

45386-52 was mentioned to me.

I might bill 44386 & 44799 unlisted procedure, intestine.

Is there a correct way to bill for this? Any input would be appreciated, thanks!
