I am having a difficult time finding references on how to code the following scenarios.
1)Patient comes in with abdominal pain, provider orders a NON-OB. Summary of report, no abnormal findings; however there is a single intrauterine fetus of approximately 6 weeks. Would you change the CPT to OB ultrasound?
2) 6 weeks pregnant patient comes in with abdominal pain; the provider orders an OB US. Summary, inflammation of gallbladder, no products of conception seen. Would you change it to NON-OB?
Thanks in advance for your help.
