Refer to the following CPT codes for tubal ligations: 58600: Report this code for a standalone procedure. 58605: Report this code for a tubal ligation following a delivery (during the same hospitalization) Also Know, what is the ICD 10 code for sterilization?
I use V25.2 sterilization. Have to go with the code V25.2 (Sterilization) because after delivery the physician performed the tubal ligation so the patient came for sterilization procedure. You must log in or register to reply here.
58605 Ligation or transection of fallopian tube (s), abdominal or vaginal approach, postpartum, unilateral or bilateral during the same hospitalization (separate procedure) This procedure is done during the same hospital stay as the delivery (except for the episode of care, this code is the same as 58600).

Can't I just get these types of medical service under Medicare? You can. Because vasectomies and tubal ligation are not emergencies and Medicare offers relatively good benefits for them. So, it's not usually worth choosing a fund on the basis of whether or not they cover these.

My docs have been doing salpingectomies for sterilization's due to the ACOG's new guidelines. Are most coders doing the 58661 instead of the 58670 for these surgeries? icd10 Z30.2 Are most people finding insurances are paying on the 58661 with the icd10 Dx? thanks for your response.
I am being told, very adamantly, that a laparoscopic cystectomy is coded with a 58661 by our head MD.He states that the cyst is actually part of the adnexa. I completely disagree with this, but am being told that I am wrong. He went on to say that a cystectomy is by far more involved than a BSO.
Note. Z codes represent reasons for encounters. A corresponding procedure code must accompany a Z code if a procedure is performed. Categories Z00-Z99 are provided for occasions when circumstances other than a disease, injury or external cause classifiable to categories A00-Y89 are recorded as 'diagnoses' or 'problems'.This can arise in two main ways:

Tubal sterilization can be performed by abdominal, suprapubic, transabdominal, transcervical, or vaginal approach (the approach is not coded separately, but may be a specific component of the procedure). Tubal sterilization may be performed at the time of a cesarean delivery or other intra-abdominal surgery, during the same hospitalization as ...
Tubal sterilization may be performed at the time of a cesarean delivery or other intra-abdominal surgery, during the same hospitalization as the delivery or other intra-abdominal surgery, but on a different day, or after the hospitalization in which the delivery or other surgery occurred.
A third incision typically is made adjacent to the fallopian tubes and the devices (Silastic bands, clips, or Falope rings) are applied to the tubes.
To fulgurate the fallopian tubes, the physician inserts an electric cautery tool or a laser through a third incision adjacent to the fallopian tubes.
58671 Laparoscopy, surgical; with occlusion of oviducts by device (eg, band, clip, or Falope rings) The physician may first insert an instrument through the vagina to grasp the cervix and to manipulate the uterus during surgery.
Such procedures are not reported separately when performed with other procedures and services in an anatomically-related area (e.g., same skin incision, same orifice, or same surgical approach). It is appropriate to report a code identified as a separate procedure if performed alone, however.
Sterilizations can be performed in the office setting or in an outpatient or inpatient hospital setting. Sterilization procedures are considered to be elective. As such, be sure you verify coverage with the patient’s insurance carrier before scheduling a procedure.
