To code the removal of a foreign object from the nasal passage, you typically use the appropriate ICD-10 code for the foreign body, such as T17.2 (foreign body in the nasal cavity), and the relevant CPT code for the procedure performed, such as 30300 (removal of foreign body from the nose). Documentation should include details about the location and method of removal. Always ensure to follow the latest coding guidelines and payer-specific requirements for accurate billing.
The CPT code for the removal of a foreign body from the nasal passage is 30300. This code is used for the extraction of foreign objects from the nasal cavity, typically performed by a healthcare professional. It is important to document the procedure accurately for billing and medical records.
932 is the diagnosis code for foreign body in the nose. There's a common pediatric code!
932 is the ICD code used for the removal of any foreign object lodged inside the nose, but 30300 is the ICD code for the removal of intranasal foreign objects when done as an office procedure.
30110 The correct answer is 30300 -> Removal foreign body, intranasal; office type procedure
The ICD-10 code for a foreign body in the nasal passage would be T17.2XXA, which specifically refers to "foreign body in nasal cavity." For the procedure of removal, you would typically use the corresponding procedural code from the CPT coding system, as ICD-10 primarily codes diagnoses rather than procedures. Always consult the most recent coding guidelines or a medical coder for the most accurate coding.

The CPT code for the removal of nasal polyps is typically 31255, which specifically covers "endoscopic sinus surgery, with removal of nasal polyps." If seven polyps are removed during the procedure, the same code applies, as it encompasses the removal of multiple polyps within the same surgical session. Always consult the latest coding guidelines or a professional coder for precise billing practices.

31237 is the CPT code for surgical right nasal cavity endoscopy with polypectomy for nasal polyps.
