Hello,

I was wondering if anyone had advice for me. My OB/GYN doctor had a patient that came in because she had lost the strings of her IUD and wanted to get it removed. I am wondering if you would code it as a removal of a foreign object in the uterus or if you would code it as a removal of intrauterine device?

Thanks in advance
Rebecca
