What is the CPT code for endotracheal intubation?

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.”
