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.
