Good Afternoon,
I have a provider who performed a laparoscopic closure of the rectum s/p partial rectum resection for cancer in 2015 and lysis of adhesions. Patient was having problems with recurrent discharge from the rectum. From the research I've done i'm pretty sure I will have to use the unlisted procedure code. Does anyone know what I could use for a compare to code or know of a better code for billing for this procedure? Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated! TIA!!
