A gastrostomy tube, or G-tube, is a tube inserted through the abdomen to deliver nutrition directly into the stomach. Prior to 2019, a single code, 43760, was used to report replacement of a G-tube without imaging or endoscopic guidance. As of January 1, 2019, 43760 is no longer valid.
As of January 1, 2019, 43760 is no longer valid. Instead, CPT® introduced two new codes to better reflect the work involved when replacing gastrostomy tubes: 43762 Replacement of gastrostomy tube, percutaneous, includes removal, when performed, without imaging or endoscopic guidance; not requiring revision of gastrostomy tract.
If the gastrostomy tract has had time to mature (eg, at least four-weeks old), and the G-tube has not been removed for more than four to six hours, a replacement tube may be placed through the same gastrostomy tract. Removal and replacement may also be scheduled for a clogged tube.
