3D Rendering to Place Gastrostomy Tube
Date: Jul 22, 2019
Question:
Some providers have indicated a need to perform 3D rendering prior to placing a gastrostomy tube. They indicate this is needed in order to determine a safe route to the stomach. Since placement of a gastrostomy tube includes image guidance, I do not believe 76377 is separately reportable. Can you confirm?
