Help please... Dr. is seeing pt every 6 mos & doing a flex larynoscopy to check for reoccurance of SCC of larynx. Do I use V10.21 history of neoplasm of larynx or the161.9? The pt has completed radiation therapy & currently has no signs of cancer.:confused:
 
Laryngoscopy, Flexible

You would use the current dx code the patient has on that day. Our Medicare payer has added this dx to the LCD and Medicare pays.
