Wiki fecal disempaction

[Colliemom]

Is there a code for manual disempaction of feces (for the diagnosis of fecal impaction, ICD-9-CM 560.39) without moderate or deep sedation performed at the patient's bedside?

(45915, removal of fecal impaction is used when the procedure was performed under anesthesia, which this was not.)

If there's no anesthesia involved, you would need to code the appropriate E&M service.
