by Meghann Drella | Jul 10, 2019 | Blog, Medical Coding | 0 comments Repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is one of the many procedures that a medical coding and billing company helps cardiovascular surgeons document, code and report.
In most cases, when an AAA is repaired, it does not remove the AAA itself, therefore it is still present. I would code it as such. Per the Guidelines, you should code all conditions that have the potential to affect decision making or care.
For repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm use CPT codes 36200, 36245-36248, and 36140 as appropriate.

CPT® code 76706: Ultrasound, abdominal aorta, real time with image documentation, screening study for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) Short Descriptor: Us abdl aorta screen AAA.
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) screening is a way of checking if there's a bulge or swelling in the aorta, the main blood vessel that runs from your heart down through your tummy. This bulge or swelling is called an abdominal aortic aneurysm, or AAA.
If a patient has just an abdominal aorta ultrasound, do we use code 76770 or 76775? Code 76706 is assigned when a screening ultrasound for AAA is ordered for a Medicare beneficiary. Otherwise, code 76775 would be assigned.
There are too many surgeries for the ICD9 to have a status post code for each of them, so V45.89 can be used for status postoperative NEC. It's what I use (when there isn't a specific status post code for the surgery we performed) if the patient isn't having issues and our Doc's are just rounding status post surgery.
As per ICD guideline, 'status post' indicate that 'a patient is either a carrier of a disease or has the sequelae or residual of a past disease or condition & also status code is distinct from a history code. The history code indicates that the patient no longer has the condition'. Owing to this, a history code cannot be choosen and so a direct code should be taken. Eg: CAD s/p CABG implies 414.00 and V45.81.
