Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses and answers the top 10 coding questions received by ASGE (American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy). The questions cover various topics related to medical coding and billing. For example, the first question is about billing for manometry and pH studies, and whether the professional component should be billed with the place of service where the test was performed or where the interpretation was done. The second question addresses coding difficulties for colonoscopies and EGDs (esophagogastroduodenoscopies) related to Lynch syndrome. The speaker provides suggestions for coding these procedures. Other questions cover topics such as modifiers, documentation requirements for EMRs (endoscopic mucosal resections), denial issues related to incorrect diagnosis codes, and the use of G codes versus CPT codes for screening colonoscopies. The speaker provides detailed explanations and recommendations for each question. <br /><br />The video does not provide specific credits for the speaker or any other individuals involved.
