For the injections, CPT® code 64642 is used for chemodenervation of one extremity; 64643 for each additional extremity, and 64647 for chemodenervation of muscles in the paraspinal region. The modifier -50 is added to 64642 and 64643 to indicate bilateral procedures. According to CPT® guidelines, when multiple sites are treated, each site is coded separately, and appropriate modifiers are used.

The described scope reaches thesigmoid colon, which is consistent with aflexible sigmoidoscopyrather than a full colonoscopy. The key therapeutic action is that the polyps were treated byablation(destruction), not snare excision or biopsy. CPT45346represents flexible sigmoidoscopy withablationof tumor(s), polyp(s), or other lesion(s). You report the sigmoidoscopy ablation codeoncefor the session; you do not multiply it by the number of polyps unless CPT instructions explicitly direct unit reporting (which is not the standard approach for these endoscopic therapeutic codes). For diagnosis, polyps in thesigmoid colonare coded asK63.5 (polyp of colon).K62.1is arectal polypcode and does not fit because the polyps are in the sigmoid colon. Therefore,45346withK63.5is correct. CPC exam tip: match thescope extent(sigmoid) and theremoval method(ablation).
