nexplanon implant complicaition
Ok… So I’m coding an xr that’s looking for a missing nexplanon birth control implant. I can’t find any complication for that particular birth control. What would you guys suggest? Otherwise it’s an xr without any abnormal findings… I can’t seem to find any other code to use, all the other birth control codes are for intrauterine devices. Ugh.
Nexplanon Removal/Insertion
If a removal and insertion of a Nexplanon is being done on the same d.o.s. what is the correct diagnosis code(s) to use?
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
Ultrasound used for a nexplanon removal
Pt came in for a Nexplanon removal, but Dr. was not able to find it. Ultrasound was used on PT’s arm in order to locate the device. I know a 11982 with a modifier should be used, but what about the ultrasound? Is it billable and if so, which CPT code should be used? I’m leaning towards CPT 76882. I have used a diagnosis of z97.8. Thank you!!
