Gastrostomy: A surgical opening into the stomach. A gastrostomy may be used for feeding, usually via a feeding tube called a gastrostomy tube. Feeding can also be done through a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube.
43763 Replacement of gastrostomy tube, percutaneous, includes removal, when performed, without imaging or endoscopic guidance: requiring revision of gastrostomy tract. Both of these are done without endoscopic guidance. 43762 is just a simple removal with replacement.
Should I use a foreign-body removal code? Answer: You cannot report a separate code for simple percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube removal because CPT contains no such code. If the surgeon removes the tube only, you can report only an appropriate-level outpatient E/M code (99201-99215).

Gastrostomy tubes, also called G-tubes or PEG tubes, are short tubes that go through the abdominal wall straight into the stomach. Nasogastric tubes, or NG tubes, are thin, flexible tubes inserted through the nose that travel down the esophagus into the stomach.
A percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a procedure to place a feeding tube. These feeding tubes are often called PEG tubes or G tubes. The tube allows you to receive nutrition directly through your stomach. This type of feeding is also known as enteral feeding or enteral nutrition.
True PEG Calls for 43246 If your surgeon places a true percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube, 43246 (Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy including esophagus, stomach, and either the duodenum and/or jejunum as appropriate; with directed placement of percutaneous gastrostomy tube) should be your code of choice.
A small amount of local anesthetic is injected into the skin around your PEG; this will help to decrease the discomfort when the PEG is removed as well as to prevent bleeding. After the PEG is removed by the doctor or nurse practitioner, silver nitrate is applied to the area in order to help stop bleeding.
Replacing a PEG tube CPT code 43760, "Change of gastrostomy tube," should be submitted when this procedure is done by a physician.
43762For CPT 2019, code 43760 will be deleted and replaced with two new codes (43762, 43763). Gastrostomy tubes (G-tubes) may be inadvertently removed if traction is placed on the tube.
