0BB48ZX for the bronchoscopic biopsy of the right upper lobe bronchus 0BB68ZX for the bronchoscopic biopsy of the right lower lobe bronchus If lymph nodes were biopsied via bronchoscopy and TBNA (transbronchial needle aspiration) then the below code would be added: 07B74ZX for the biopsy of thorax lymph nodes via needle.
Which of the following is an example of an ICD-10-CM code?
What you can expect
The new codes are for describing the infusion of tixagevimab and cilgavimab monoclonal antibody (code XW023X7), and the infusion of other new technology monoclonal antibody (code XW023Y7).

31628Answer: 31628, 31652. NCCI edits are precluding the reporting of 31625 with 31628, so only code 31628 can be reported with 31652. 10. A patient undergoes bronchoscopy and a transbronchial lung biopsy of the left lower lobe via fluoroscopy is planned.
CPT 31628 (Bronchoscopy, rigid or flexible, including fluoroscopic guidance, when performed; with transbronchial lung biopsy(s), single lobe) and CPT 31632 (with transbronchial lung biopsy(s) each additional lobe) would be reported.
The EBBX/31625 of the RUL wouldn't be billed (with or without 59 mod) because it's the same location as the TBBX/31628.
CPT code 31652 with endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) guided transtracheal and/or transbronchial sampling (eg, aspiration[s]/ biopsy[ies]), one or two mediastinal and/or hilar lymph node stations or structures is utilized when one samples two or less proximal structures.
For ICD-10-PCS this procedure is coded: 0BBC8ZX for the transbronchial lung tissue excision of the right upper lobe via bronchoscopy for diagnostic biopsy.
Definition. Bronchoscopy with transbronchial biopsy is a procedure in which a bronchoscope is inserted through the nose or mouth to collect several pieces of lung tissue. Alternative Names. Biopsy - lung - bronchoscopic.
Answer: Initial therapeutic bronchoscopy is the first procedure during any hospitalization and is reported with CPT code 31645. A subsequent therapeutic bronchoscopy, later the same day or another day, but during the same hospitalization, is defined as subsequent and is reported with CPT code 31646.
Lung Biopsy The code 32405, “Biopsy, lung or mediastinum, percutaneous needle,” has been replaced by new code 32408, “Core needle biopsy, lung or mediastinum, percutaneous, including imaging guidance, when performed.” Accordingly, imaging guidance may no longer be billed separately.
Bronchoscopy is a procedure to look directly at the airways in the lungs using a thin, lighted tube (bronchoscope). The bronchoscope is put in the nose or mouth. It is moved down the throat and windpipe (trachea), and into the airways.
You'll notice as well that 31622 is noted as a "separate procedure" which means it can usually only be billed when billed alone, otherwise it becomes part of the "bigger procedure" , in your case the 31625.
CPT 31622 is used for bronchoscopy, rigid or flexible, including fluoroscopic guidance; diagnostic, with cell washing. CPT 31623 is used for bronchoscopy, rigid or flexible, including fluoroscopic guidance; with brushing or protected brushings.
31625 – Bronchoscopy, rigid or flexible, with or without fluoroscopic guidance; with bronchial or endobronchial biopsy(s); single or multiple sites.
