I have always coded it K63.5, but if I'm understanding the March article on polyps correctly, I should be coding it D12.5

Trish, thank you very much for the response, the K63.5 is how I have always coded it. The AAPC E-Magazine, March edition, article on 4 steps to colon polyp coding is telling me differently, unless I'm understanding the article wrong. If you get the chance give it a read and let me know what you think. I appreciate your input.
