What are the surgical CPT codes that should be used for biopsy of colon when performed during a colonoscopy? I was thinking 88300-88309
 
colonoscopy pathology

Hi, a biopsy of the intestine or a polyp submitted to the pathology department for review will be billed with 88305 Level IV gross & microscopic charge.
