Can someone help clarify billing for a foreign body not found upon GI radiology? The best example is a child who is brought in with the belief that they may have swallowed a coin or magnet. There are no findings, according to the radiologist's report. Since radiology with no findings must be coded to the symptoms and there are none listed, I have billed these with V71.89, suspected condition not found. This is sometimes paid and sometimes denied. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
