The CPT code for a shunt series X-ray is 76140. This code is used specifically for imaging studies that evaluate the placement and function of a shunt, typically in cases involving conditions such as hydrocephalus. It is important to confirm the specific context and requirements for imaging to ensure proper coding.
The CPT code for repositioning a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt is typically 62230. This code is used for the revision or repositioning of the shunt system when complications arise or when the shunt needs adjustment. It's important to verify the specific clinical scenario and documentation, as coding can vary based on the details of the procedure performed. Always consult the most current coding guidelines or a professional coder for accuracy.
