CPT® provides a single code to report endotracheal intubation—31500 Intubation, endotracheal, emergency procedure —but application of this code isn’t always straightforward.

0BH17EZInsertion of Endotracheal Airway into Trachea, Via Natural or Artificial Opening. ICD-10-PCS 0BH17EZ is a specific/billable code that can be used to indicate a procedure.
There are two ICD-10-PCS codes to consider as follows: 0BH17EZ Insertion of tracheal airway into trachea, via natural or artificial opening. 0BH18EZ Insertion of endotracheal airway into trachea, via natural or article opening endoscopic.
31500Services such as endotracheal intubation (CPT code 31500) and the insertion and placement of a flow directed catheter e.g., Swan-Ganz (CPT code 93503) ), A-line placement (36620), CVP placement (36556) are not bundled into the critical care codes.
Endotracheal intubation is a medical procedure in which a tube is placed into the windpipe (trachea) through the mouth or nose. In most emergency situations, it is placed through the mouth.

CPT® 36556, Under Insertion of Central Venous Access Device The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) code 36556 as maintained by American Medical Association, is a medical procedural code under the range - Insertion of Central Venous Access Device.
From 2012, CPT code for chest drainage with a catheter (32551) was changed to an open procedure designation. . Code 32556 or 32557 are used for percutaneous placement of an indwelling pleural drainage tube.
CPT code 31500 describes an emergency endotracheal intubation procedure and shall not be reported when an elective intubation is performed.
Although intubation is not typically performed by most RNs, some states, like Nevada, allow Registered Nurses to intubate patients if they have completed special training (i.e. advanced cardiac life support training).
Intubation is the process of inserting an endotracheal tube (ETT) into the airway (windpipe). The tube is then hooked up to a device that delivers air.
An endotracheal tube is an example of an artificial airway. A tracheostomy is another type of artificial airway. The word intubation means to "insert a tube". Usually, the word intubation is used in reference to the insertion of an endotracheal tube (Image 1).
CPT® provides a single code to report endotracheal intubation—31500 Intubation, endotracheal, emergency procedure —but application of this code isn’t always straightforward. Per CPT® and National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) guidelines, 31500 describes an emergency endotracheal intubation and should not be reported for elective endotracheal intubation. CPT Assistant (Dec. 2009) clarifies, “Code 31500 … should be reported for a stand-alone emergent or semi-emergent endotracheal intubation, such as rapid sequence intubation either using a rigid or flexible type of endoscope (ie, laryngoscope, bronchoscope).” There is no CPT® code for elective endotracheal intubation.#N#Additional points to keep in mind when considering 31500 include: 1 Do not separately report 31500 with any anesthesia procedure. NCCI guidelines confirm, “Airway access is necessary for general anesthesia and is not separately reportable.” 2 Endotracheal intubation is bundled in (included in) pediatric and neonatal critical care service codes (99293-99296). 3 Per CPT®, “Visualization of the airway is a component part of an endotracheal intubation, and CPT codes describing procedures that visualize the airway (e.g., nasal endoscopy, laryngoscopy, bronchoscopy) should not be reported with an endotracheal intubation. It is a misuse of diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy codes to report visualization of the airway for endotracheal intubation.”
Do not separately report 31500 with any anesthesia procedure. NCCI guidelines confirm, “Airway access is necessary for general anesthesia and is not separately reportable.”. Endotracheal intubation is bundled in (included in) pediatric and neonatal critical care service codes (99293-99296).
