Emergency codes 31603 and 31605 are reported rarely because of the risk involved. Finally, if the provider uses skin flaps to create an opening, report 31610 Tracheostomy, fenestration procedure with skin flaps. John Verhovshek, MA, CPC, is a contributing editor at AAPC.
For example, if a patient presents with wheezing, which is quickly progressing to upper–airway obstruction, the provider may perform a tracheostomy.

31600Tracheostomy. Code 31600 Tracheostomy, planned (separate procedure) describes a planned tracheostomy; however, if the patient is under 2 years of age, 31601 should be used. Code 31600 is reported for “percutaneous” tracheostomy as well. This procedure can be performed with or without a bronchoscope.
A tracheostomy may be temporary or permanent, depending on the reason for its use. For example, if the tracheostomy tube is inserted to bypass a trachea that is blocked by blood or swelling, it will be removed once regular breathing is once again possible.
Once the patient is tolerating an extended period of cuff deflation and at least four hours at one time with a speaking valve in situ, a trial with the decannulation cap can be considered. This is the final stage of the weaning process and the tracheostomy tube is effectively blocked off.
ICD-10 code R47. 89 for Other speech disturbances is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .

Definition: The process whereby a tracheostomy tube is removed once patient no longer needs it. Indication: When the initial indication for a tracheostomy no longer exists.
97.37 Removal of tracheostomy tube.
Breathing is done through the tracheostomy tube rather than through the nose and mouth. The term “tracheotomy” refers to the incision into the trachea (windpipe) that forms a temporary or permanent opening, which is called a “tracheostomy,” however; the terms are sometimes used interchangeably.
CPT® Code 31622 in section: Bronchoscopy, rigid or flexible, including fluoroscopic guidance, when performed.
A laryngectomy is a procedure which alters the anatomy of the upper airway and results in breathing that occurs only through the stoma. The entire larynx is removed during a total laryngectomy. In tracheostomy, the upper airway is still intact. There is potential upper airway in patients with tracheostomy.

The median survival after tracheostomy was 21 months (range, 0-155 months). The survival rate was 65% by 1 year and 45% by 2 years after tracheostomy. Survival was significantly shorter in patients older than 60 years at tracheostomy, with a hazard ratio of dying of 2.1 (95% confidence interval, 1.1-3.9).
For people with a tracheostomy — a breathing tube in their throat — the mucus gets trapped in their lungs. It has to be suctioned several times throughout the day. The procedure is life-saving.

Providers perform emergency tracheostomies when a patient’s airway is so compromised that it may obstruct her or his breathing at any moment. For example, if a patient presents with wheezing, which is quickly progressing to upper–airway obstruction, the provider may perform a tracheostomy.
Tracheostomy is an incision into the trachea to maintain a patient’s airway, and either may be scheduled or performed on an emergency basis. Be sure to differentiate tracheostomy from tracheotomy: A tracheotomy is used to describe a temporary opening into the trachea, while a tracheostomy signifies a permanent opening ...
