Gastrostomy is used to provide a route for tube feeding if needed for four weeks or longer, and/or to vent the stomach for air or drainage. Children may have this procedure if they are in need of an intestine transplant or after intestinal transplantation.
Who Needs a G-Tube? Kids need G-tubes for different kinds of health problems, including: congenital (present at birth) problems of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, or intestines. sucking and swallowing disorders (due to premature birth, injury, a developmental delay, or another condition)
A feeding tube can remain in place as long as you need it. Some people stay on one for life.
How often does the tube need replacing? Gastrostomy tubes vary in the length of time to replacement. Most original gastrostomy tubes last up to 12 months and balloon tubes last up to 6 months.
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 As of January 1, 2019, 43760 is no longer valid. Instead, CPT® introduced two new codes to better reflect the work involved when replacing gastrostomy tubes:
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.
As of January 1, 2019, 43760 is no longer valid.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.
As explained in the February 2019 CPT Assistant: Gastrostomy tubes (G-tubes) may be inadvertently removed if traction is placed on the tube.
