Postpartum complication.....
My provider did a c-section with a myomectomy on a patient that later that same day had to be taken back to the OR for a Ex Lap with/without biopsies and ligation of left uterine artery due to a hematoma and bleeding. My provider wants to bill the following codes 59025-26, 59510 with 58140 and 49000. However, I believe that the correct codes to be billed should be 59510, 58140-51, 59025-26, 49002-78-59, 37617-51. Can someone please tell me if the 49002 and 36717 should be billed?
