Hi all,
I have been having some problems with the use of unlisted codes when procedures a done laparoscopically. This is in Gen Surg. Seems to happen often in Lap Roux en Y procedures.(43659)
This is an A/R nightmare.. Wondering if anyone out here is having the same issues?
Any help regarding the use of unlisted codes in Gen Surg will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Patty
 
Thank you for writing back Jodielonkoski.
The CPT book describes this to be for gastric restrictive surgery. The problem is the patient has a gastric ulcer and nothing related to bariatric issues.
