Coding and Payment for Cellvizio Optical Endomicroscopy

Coding and Payment for Cellvizio Optical Endomicroscopy procedures in the esophagus or upper GI tract are reported with the American Medical Association established CPT Codes 43206 and/or 43252.

Other optical endomicroscopy procedures are reported by using unlisted codes for specific clinical indications. OE procedures, when performed, are reported as separate and distinct procedures from the endoscopy procedure performed.
