Hi,
Does anyone know if I can code 47563 if we did a Lap.Cholecystectomy and attempted to do a cholangiogram, however, we had to abort the cholangiogram due to a arterial vessel that began to bleed and being concerened about dividing the cystic duct more.

I am billing for the physician fee.
Is there any documentation about this out there? I'm thinking I can only bill 47562
