I called my insurance today to see if they will cover my revision surgery and they needed the CPT code to look it up.  Do anyone know the VSG revision code and the DS revision code?

No I don't, but maybe if you call the surgeon's office you are going to go through, maybe they can tell you what code the hospital will use.

Here is a link for you to look at

And here is a CPT code for the DS = 43848 (this is taken off a letter from my doc to the insurance company)  So make sure to double check it, OK?



Hope that helps!!!!
