Can anyone tell me if there is a seperate code to bill for a ERCP with a METAL wall stent? or is the code same as regular stent 43268
 
stents

It would be the same as a plastic stent. The stents are made of several materials. Plastic stents are usually placed temporarily, while metal mesh stents are for long-term placements. But neither the duration of the placement nor the material the stent is made of affects how a stent procedure is coded. :)
