When calling insurance companies for prior authorizations, in the following scenario...Which codes should we use/ask for prior authorization on? :

dx laparoscopy/chromotubation/hysteroscopy,diagnostic,possible fibroid resection.

Should the code be 58561 with the 58350?

thank you!
 
I would ask about both codes. Assuming that the chromotubation is done by laparoscope and not hysterscope, you will bill for both. Different approaches for that and the leiomyoma removal. I would try to cover my heine by getting the insurance OK for both.
