Case Studies: Break Down Robotic Pelvis Exploration Coding Mechanics

Look to this specific category III code. Robotic procedures are cutting edge from a medical, technological, and coding perspective. Today, you’re going to have a look at a coding scenario involving a robotic pelvis exploration. With some helpful instruction from Michael A. Ferragamo, MD, clinical assistant professor of urology, State University of New York Stony Brook, you’ll stay ahead of the technological curve by tackling a real-world example. Situation: A patient is taken to the operating room for robotic exploration and excision of a left perirectal mass. The urologist located the mass below the left ureter and...
