During a robotic colectomy the surgeon does an evaluation of the blood supply to the bowel flaps with "firefly" and asked if he can bill an additional code for the evaluation.

He suggested 15860 angiographic evaluation of colonic flap performed with immunofluorescence.


Has anyone billed this along with a colectomy?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
