I assume this is an interp from an x-ray confirming position of the NDT? If yes, I don't think V58.82 is the correct code, as that code definition states, "fitting and adjustment of non-vascular catheter NEC --
removal or replacement of catheter, toilet or cleansing."
removal or replacement of catheter, toilet or cleansing."
it is for a radiology interp. I was told also V58.82 but my self was un sure and wondered what others think???
