In a September 2007 supplement to OBG Management, “Best options, techniques, and coding tips for pelvic prolapse repair,” I answered frequently asked questions about Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes and documentation for these procedures. In this follow-up supplement, I explain a number of changes to those codes that have occurred in the interim and that appear in the CPT 2010 Professional Edition, and answer relevant questions that have been posed by gyn surgeons and by billing staff in their practices.
