What codes should I use!?!
My doctor did a laparoscopy removal of the left ovary & fallopian tubes as well as lysis of adhesions.
I believe I need to use 58661 w/ 59 mod and 58660. Not feelling 100% sure on this though! Can some please confirm for me if this is correct.
Thank you and God bless!
re: What codes should I use!?!
According to the CPT® book 58660 is lap. surgical with lysis of adhesions and
58661 is underneath which I think is a apart of 58660 because it says with removal of adnexal structures.........
re: What codes should I use!?!
58661 includes moderate lysis. The 58660 is not billable in addition to the 58661 if the payer follows NCCI bundling, and you cannot over-ride the bundle with a modifier.
